Men Not Living To What They Know,

We Are Inclined To Call Things By The Wrong Names. We Call Prosperity 'happiness', And Adversity 'misery' Eventhough Adversity Is The School Of Wisdom And Often The Way To Eternal Happiness.

Inquiry Is Human; Blind Obedience Brutal. Truth Never Loses By The One But Often Suffers By The Other.

Nor Yet Be Overeager In Pursuit Of Any Thing; For The Mercurial Too Often Happen To Leave Judgment Behind Them, And Sometimes Make Work For Repentance.

Tis The Glory Of A Man To Vail To Truth; As It Is The Mark Of A Good Nature To Be Easily Entreated.

It Is Certain That The Most Natural And Human Government Is That Of Consent, For That Binds Freely, ... When Men Hold Their Liberty By True Obedience To Rules Of Their Own Making.
