Where Fear Is Present, Wisdom

It Is Possible That Mount Olympus May Have Supplied The Poets With The Hint For Saying That Jupiter Obtained The Kingdom Of Heaven, Because Olympus Is The Common Name Both Of The Mountain And Of Heaven.

Therefore Let Men Withdraw Themselves From Errors; And Laying Aside Corrupt Superstitions, Let Them Acknowledge Their Father And Lord, Whose Excellence Cannot Be Estimated, Nor His Greatness Perceived, Nor His Beginning Comprehended.

For When God Forbids Us To Kill, He Not Only Prohibits Us From Open Violence, Which Is Not Even Allowed By The Public Laws, But He Warns Us Against The Commission Of Those Beings Which Are Esteemed Lawful Among Men....therefore, With Regard To This Precept Of God, There Ought To Be No Exception At All, But That It Is Always Unlawful To Put To Death A Man, Whom God Willed To Be A Sacred Animal.

But God, Who Is The Eternal Mind, Is Undoubtedly Of Excellence, Complete And Perfect In Every Part.

Modesty In Human Beings Is Praised Because It Is Not A Matter Of Nature, But Of Will.
