True Dignity Is Never Gained

If You Like Not Hanging, Drown Yourself; Take Some Course For Your Reputation.

Pleasures Of Worse Natures Are Gladly Entertained, And They That Shun Us Practice In Private Sports The Stews Would Blush At.

Though The Desire Of Fame Be The Last Weakness Wise Men Put Off.

He That Doth Public Good For Multitudes, Finds Few Are Truly Grateful

Great Men, Till They Have Gained Their Ends, Are Giants In Their Promises, But, Those Obtained, Weak Pigmies In Their Performance. And It Is A Maxim Allowed Among Them, So They May Deceive, They May Swear Anything; For The Queen Of Love, As They Hold Constantly, Does Never Punish, But Smile, At Lovers' Perjuries.
