what care

C. "...life is burthened with a thousand artificial cares and anxieties: the growth of envy, jealousy and folly, the prolific brood of another arch-tyrant, fashion."

F. "Well! what care we in this honest wilderness! Care for nothing you cannot help, is the sum of my philosophy."  
(Scenes Beyond the Western Border ; Scenes and Adventures in the Army)
