Men Are Nearly Always Willing To Believe

I Have Lived Long Enough Both In Years And In Accomplishments.

War Gives The Right To The Conquerors To Impose Any Condition They Please Upon The Vanquished.

What We Wish, We Readily Believe, And What We Ourselves Think, We Imagine Others Think Also.

Fortune, Which Has A Great Deal Of Power In Other Matters But Especially In War, Can Bring About Great Changes In A Situation Through Very Slight Forces.

If I Fail It Is Only Because I Have Too Much Pride And Ambition.
