The Happiness And Unhappiness Of Men Depends

Silence Is The Best Tactic For He Who Distrusts Himself.

It Is Easier To Appear Worthy Of A Position One Does Not Hold, Than Of The Office Which One Fills.

A Weak Mind Is The Only Defect Out Of Our Power To Mend.

Of All Our Faults, The One We Avow Most Easily Is Idleness; We Persuade Ourselves That It Is Allied To All The Peaceable Virtues,and As For The Others, That It Does Not Destroy Them Utterly, But Only Suspends The Exercise Of Their Functions.

The Happiness And Unhappiness Of Men Depends As Much On Their Ethics As On Fortune.
