When I Was Happy I Thought I Knew Men, But It Was Fated That I Should Know Them In Misfortune Only.

If I Had Not Been Defeated In Acre Against Jezzar Pasha Of Turk. I Would Conquer All Of The East.

In Order Not To Be Astonished At Obtaining Victories, One Ought Not To Think Only Of Defeats.

The Spectacle Of A Field Of Battle After The Combat, Is Sufficient To Inspire Princes With The Love Of Peace, And The Horror Of War.

The Contagion Of Crime Is Like That Of The Plague. Criminals Collected Together Corrupt Each Other. They Are Worse Than Ever When, At The Termination Of Their Punishment, They Return To Society.
