Ambition Is Not In Itself An Evil;

The Return We Reap From Generous Actions Is Not Always Evident.

To Give Vent Now And Then To His Feelings, Whether Of Pleasure Or Discontent, Is A Great Ease To A Man's Heart.

Affairs That Depend On Many Rarely Succeed.

It Is A Great Matter To Be In Authority Over Others; For Authority, If It Be Rightly Used, Will Make You Feared Beyond Your Actual Resources.

He Is Less Likely To Be Mistaken Who Looks Forward To A Change In The Affairs Of The World Than He Who Regards Them As Firm And Stable.
