The Value Of All Things Contracted For,

If I Read As Many Books As Most Men Do, I Would Be As Dull-witted As They Are.

The Interpretation Of The Laws Of Nature In A Common-wealth, Dependeth Not On The Books Of Moral Philosophy. The Authority Of Writers, Without The Authority Of The Commonwealth, Maketh Not Their Opinions Law, Be They Never So True.

Leisure Can Be One Of The Mothers Of Philosophy.

Every Man May Think His Own Cause Just Till It Be Heard And Judged.
