"I know not anything more pleasant, or more……" — Samuel Johnson

"I know not anything more pleasant, or more instructive, than to compare experience with expectation, or to register from time to time the difference between idea and reality. It is by this kind of observation that we grow daily less liable to be disappointed."

Samuel Johnson
