It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations.

The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln edited by Roy P. Basler, Volume III, Address Before the Wisconsin State Agricultural Society, Milwaukee, Wisconsin (September 30, 1859), pp. 481-482.
