I Perceive Affection Makes A Fool Of

I Would Rather Have A Plain Down-right Wisdom Than A Foolish And Affected Eloquence.

A Good Man Should And Must Sit Rather Down With Loss Than Rise Unjust.

Peace Is Never More Than One Thought Away.

What Excellent Fools Religion Makes Of Men.

That Praises Are Without Reason Lavished On The Dead, And That The Honours Due Only To Are Paid To Antiquity, Is A Complaint Likely To Be Always Continued By Those Who, Being Able To Add Nothing To Truth, Hope For Eminence From The Heresies Of Paradox; Or Those Who, Being Forced By Disappointment Upon Consolatory Expedients, Are Willing To Hope From Posterity What The Present Age Refuses, And Flatter Themselves That The Regard Which Is Yet Denied By Envy Will Be At Last Bestowed By Time.
