From the direct exhortation and the indirect teaching of Lucretius, he may learn such lessons as these,-that it is man's first business to know and obey the laws of his being,-that the sphere of his happiest activity is to be found in contemplation rather than in action,-that his well-being consists in valuing rightly the real blessings of life rather than in following the illusions of fancy or of custom,-in Reverencing the sanctity of family life,-and in cherishing a kindly sympathy with all living things.
"The Roman Poets of the Republic"

"Fortitude"
Hugh Walpole
Reverencing the noble design of Bramante, Michael Angelo left the interior, of which the symmetry of plan and beauty of the many pilasters with their Corinthian capitals are notable characteristics, much as he found it, but though he introduced on the exterior Corinthian pilasters resembling those of the interior, he greatly modified the general aspect of the former by the removal of the projecting chapels and the aisles round the apses.
