It Is When Fortune Is

Nature Has Ordained That The Man Who Is Pleading His Own Cause Before A Large Audience, Will Be More Readily Listened To Than He Who Has No Object In View Other Than The Public Benefit.

There Is Always More Spirit In Attack Than In Defence.

The Populace Is Like The Sea Motionless In Itself, But Stirred By Every Wind, Even The Lightest Breeze.

Men Are Seldom Blessed With Good Fortune And Good Sense At The Same Time.

The Troubles Which Have Come Upon Us Always Seem More Serious Than Those Which Are Only Threatening.
