God Creates Men, But They Choose Each

Conquered States That Have Been Accustomed To Liberty And The Government Of Their Own Laws Can Be Held By The Conqueror In Three Different Ways. The First Is To Ruin Them; The Second, For The Conqueror To Go And Reside There In Person; And The Third Is To Allow Them To Continue To Live Under Their Own Laws, Subject To A Regular Tribute, And To Create In Them A Government Of A Few, Who Will Keep The Country Friendly To The Conqueror

For One Change Always Leaves A Dovetail Into Which Another Will Fit.

It Is Better To Be Adventurous Than Cautious, Because Fortune Is A Woman.
