It Is The Nature Of All Greatness

Economy Is A Distributive Virtue, And Consists Not In Saving But Selection. Parsimony Requires No Providence, No Sagacity, No Powers Of Combination, No Comparison, No Judgment.

The Only Thing Necessary For The Triumph Of Evil Is For Good Men To Do Nothing.

Contempt Is Not A Thing To Be Despised.

Delusion And Weakness Produce Not One Mischief The Less, Because They Are Universal.

Magnificence Is Likewise A Source Of The Sublime. A Great Profusion Of Things Which Are Splendid Or Valuable In Themselves Is Magnificent. The Starry Heaven, Though It Occurs So Very Frequently To Our View, Never Fails To Excite An Idea Of Grandeur.
