Genius Has No Country. It

There Can Be No Tyrants Where There Are No Slaves.

To Live Is To Be Among Men, And To Be Among Men Is To Struggle, A Struggle Not Only With Them But With Oneself; With Their Passions, But Also With One's Own.

Your Enemies Hate You More Than They Hate Your Ideas. Should You Want A Project To Be Undone Propose It. Even If It Were As Useful As A Bishop's Mire It Would Be Rejected. Once You Are Defeated Let The Humblest-looking Among You Sponsor It And Your Enemies To Humble You Will Approve It.

I Don't See Why I Should Bow My Head When I Could Hold It High, Or Place It In The Hands Of My Enemies When I Can Defeat Them.

Let Us Not Ask For Miracles, Let Us Not Ask For Concern With What Is Good For The Country Of Him Who Comes As A Stranger To Make His Fortune And Leave Afterwards.
