Truly amazing, what people can get used to, as long as there are a few compensations.
Every season of life has its compensations.
Nature is less partial than she appears, and all situations in life have their compensations along with them.
Fame is fickle, and I know it. It has its compensations but it also has its drawbacks, and I've experienced them both.
Mortality has its compensations; one is that all evils are transitory, another that better times may come.
The compensations of calamity are made apparent to the understanding also, after long intervals of time.
Being on the move all the time is draining, but the rewards make up for it.
For all the toll the desert takes of a man it gives compensations, deep breaths, deep sleep, and the communion of the stars.
