Men Acquire A Particular Quality

We Ought Not To Listen To Those Who Exhort Us, Because We Are Human, To Think Of Human Things....we Ought Rather To Take On Immortality As Much As Possible, And Do All That We Can To Live In Accordance With The Highest Element Within Us; For Even If Its Bulk Is Small, In Its Power And Value It Far Exceeds Everything.

Anyone Who Has No Need Of Anybody But Himself Is Either A Beast Or A God.

The Fool Tells Me His Reason; The Wise Man Persuades Me With My Own.

That Judges Of Important Causes Should Hold Office For Life Is A Questionable Thing, For The Mind Grows Old As Well As The Body.

For This Reason Poetry Is Something More Philosophical And More Worthy Of Serious Attention Than History.
