We Believe Whatever We Want

As A Vessel Is Known By The Sound, Whether It Be Cracked Or Not; So Men Are Proved, By Their Speeches, Whether They Be Wise Or Foolish.

The More Able A Man Is, If He Make Ill Use Of His Abilities, The More Dangerous Will He Be To The Commonwealth.

To Remind A Man Of The Good Turns You Have Done Him Is Very Much Like A Reproach.

Great And Unexpected Successes Are Often The Cause Of Foolish Rushing Into Acts Of Extravagance.

Good Fortune Is The Greatest Of Blessings, But Good Counsel Comes Next, And The Lack Of It Destroys The Other Also.
