We Must Form Our Minds By Reading

Satiety Is A Neighbor To Continued Pleasures. [lat., Continuis Voluptatibus Vicina Satietas.]

Minds That Are Stupid And Incapable Of Science Are In The Order Of Nature To Be Regarded As Monsters And Other Extraordinary Phenomena; Minds Of This Sort Are Rare. Hence I Conclude That There Are Great Resources To Be Found In Children, Which Are Suffered To Vanish With Their Years. It Is Evident, Therefore, That It Is Not Of Nature, But Of Our Own Negligence, We Ought To Complain.

Men, Even When Alone, Lighten Their Labors By Song, However Rude It May Be.

That Which Offends The Ear Will Not Easily Gain Admission To The Mind.

Prune What Is Turgid, Elevate What Is Commonplace, Arrange What Is Disorderly, Introduce Rhythm Where The Language Is Harsh, Modify Where It Is Too Absolute.
