A Liar Would Be Brave Toward God,

A Man Has Need Of Tough Ears To Hear Himself Fairly Judged.

Hath God Obliged Himself Not To Exceed The Bounds Of Our Knowledge?

Nature Has, Herself, I Fear, Imprinted In Man A Kind Of Instinct To Inhumanity.

I Look Upon The Too Good Opinion That Man Has Of Himself, As The Nursing Mother Of All False Opinions, Both Public And Private.

For Truth Itself Has Not The Privilege To Be Spoken At All Times And In All Sorts.
