Note 141 — APPENDIX TO THE ESSAY ON CLASSIFICATION.
Reading edition
Take no pleasure in the folly of an idiot, nor in the whims and fancies of a lunatic, nor in the phrensy of a drunkard; make them the object of thy love and pity, not of thy pastime: when thou, alas! beholdest them, behold how thou art indebted to Him who suffered thee not to be like them!—Retrosp. Rev. p. 185.
