When We Are Sick Our Virtues And

It Is Proof Of A Narrow Mind When Things Worthy Of Esteem Are Distinguished From Things Worthy Of Love. Great Minds Naturally Love Whatever Is Worthy Of Their Esteem.

The Best Things Are The Most Common.

Superficial Knowledge ... Is Hurtful To Those Who Possess True Genius; For It Necessarily Draws Them Away From Their Main Object, Wastes Their Industry Over Details And Subjects Foreign To Their Needs And Natural Talent, And Lastly Does Not Serve, As They Flatter Themselves, To Prove The Breadth Of Their Mind. In All Ages There Have Been Men Of Very Moderate Intelligence Who Knew Much, And So On The Contrary, Men Of The Highest Intelligence Who Knew Very Little. Ignorance Is Not Lack Of Intelligence, Nor Knowledge A Proof Of Genius.

We Should Expect The Best And The Worst From Mankind As From The Weather.

Great Men, Like Nature, Use Simple Language.
