The Venal Herd. [lat., Venale Pecus.]

The Examples Of Vice At Home Corrupt Us More Quickly And Easily Than Others, Since They Steal Into Our Minds Under The Highest Authority.

A Third Heir Seldom Enjoys What Has Been Dishonestly Acquired.

Those Who Do Not Wish To Kill Any One, Wish They Had The Power. [lat., Et Qui Nolunt Occidere Quemquam Posse Volunt.]

Rare Indulgence Produces Greater Pleasure.

Now We Suffer The Evils Of A Long Peace; Luxury More Cruel Than War Broods Over Us And Avenges A Conquered World.
