Simple Ignorance Has In Its Time Been

Wise Sayings Often Fall On Barren Ground, But A Kind Word Is Never Thrown Away.

Always Win Fools First. They Talk Much, And What They Have Once Uttered They Will Stick To; Whereas There Is Always Time, Up To The Last Moment, To Bring Before A Wise Man Arguments That May Entirely Change His Opinion.

Men Rattle Their Chains-to Manifest Their Freedom.

An Official Man Is Always An Official Man, And Has A Wild Belief In The Value Of Reports.

There Are Few Who Would Need Advisers, If They Were Only Accustomed To Appeal To Themselves In Their Calmest, Holiest Moments. If, When Embarrassed With Doubt As To Any Course Of Action, They Would Turn Aside From The Immediate Tumult Of The World, And From The Vain Speaking Of Those Who "darken Counsel By Words Without Knowledge;" And Would Then Commune With Their Hearts Alone, At Night, The Heavens Their Silent Counsellors, They Would Act Not Always In Accordance With The Wise Men Of This World, But With That Wisdom Which Bringeth Peace.
