Nature, that rude, and in her first essay,
Stood boggling at the roughness of the way;
Us'd to the road, unknowing to return,
Goes boldly on, and loves the path when worn.
-- John Dryden, 13th Satire of Juvenal
For the gate is wide and the way is easy,
that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.
-- Matthew 7:13
