A Fat Kitchin, A Lean Will.

They Who Have Nothing To Trouble Them, Will Be Troubled At Nothing.

Those Who Govern, Having Much Business On Their Hands, Do Not Generally Like To Take The Trouble Of Considering And Carrying Into Execution New Projects. The Best Public Measures Are Therefore Seldom Adopted From Previous Wisdom, But Forced By The Occasion.

You Will See In This My Notion Of Good Works, That I Am Far From Expecting To Merit Heaven By Them. By Heaven We Understand A State Of Happiness, Infinite In Degree, And Eternal In Duration. I Can Do Nothing To Deserve Such Rewards... Even The Mixed Imperfect Pleasures We Enjoy In This World, Are Rather From God's Goodness Than Our Merit, How Much More Such Happiness Of Heaven!

It Is Easier To Build Two Chimneys Than To Keep One In Fuel.

Sloth And Silence Are A Fool's Virtues
