What I Gained By Being In France

As He That Lives Longest Lives But A Little While, Every Man May Be Certain That He Has No Time To Waste. The Duties Of Life Are Commensurate To Its Duration; And Every Day Brings Its Task, Which, If Neglected, Is Doubled On The Morrow.

A Lawyer Has No Business With The Justice Or Injustice Of The Cause Which He Undertakes, Unless His Client Asks His Opinion, And Then He Is Bound To Give It Honestly. The Justice Or Injustice Of The Cause Is To Be Decided By The Judge.

Such Is The Constitution Of Man That Labor May Be Said To Be Its Own Re-ward.

I Hate Mankind, For I Think Myself One Of The Best Of Them, And I Know How Bad I Am.

To Paint Things As They Are Requires A Minute Attention, And Employs The Memory Rather Than The Fancy.
