 A careful physician, before he attempts to administer a remedy to his patient, must investigate not only the malady of the man he wishes to cure, but also his habits when in health, and his physical constitution. |
| A friend is, as it were, a second self. |
| A good orator is pointed and impassioned. |
| A home without books is a body without soul. |
| A home without books is a body without soul. |
| A man of courage is also full of faith. |
| A man's own manner and character is what most becomes him |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague. |
| A person who is wise does nothing against their will, nothing with sighing or under coercion. |
| A room without books is like a body without a soul. |
| A tear dries quickly when it is shed for troubles of others. |
| A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues |
| Ability without honor is useless. |
| Advice in old age is foolish; for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey's end. |
| Advice is judged by results, not by intentions |
