Men Are Only Clever At Shifting Blame

We Feel Public Misfortunes Just So Far As They Affect Our Private Circumstances, And Nothing Of This Nature Appeals More Directly To Us Than The Loss Of Money.

Favor And Honor Sometimes Fall More Fitly On Those Who Do Not Desire Them.

He Is Truly A Man Who Will Not Permit Himself To Be Unduly Elated When Fortune's Breeze Is Favorable, Or Cast Down When It Is Adverse.

Men Are Least Safe From What Success Induces Them Not To Fear.

The Mind Sins, Not The Body; If There Is No Intention, There Is No Blame.
