1,379. Moral Instruction;
Naiveté
"To youth, therefore, it should be carefully inculcated, that to
enter the road of life without caution or reserve, in
expectation of general fidelity and justice, is to launch on
the wide ocean without the instruments of steerage, and to
hope that every wind will be prosperous, and that every coast
will afford a harbour."
Johnson: Rambler #175 (November 19, 1751)
