Where Beams Of Imagination Play,

Let Fortune Do Her Worst, Whatever She Makes Us Lose, So Long As She Never Makes Us Lose Our Honesty And Our Independence.

Know Then Thyself, Presume Not God To Scan; The Proper Study Of Mankind Is Man.

Let Such Teach Others Who Themselves Excel, And Censure Freely Who Have Written Well.

The Life Of A Wit Is A Warfare Upon Earth.

Men, Some To Business, Some To Pleasure Take; But Every Woman Is At Heart A Rake.
