Among Wellborn Spirits Courage Does Not Depend

Ambition Displeases When It Has Been Sated ... Having Reached The Peak, It Aspires To Descend.

When Obedience Is So Impious, Revolt Is A Necessity.

Liberty May Be Of No More Use Than Stirring Up The Flame Of Civil Wars; Then, By Disorder Fatal To The World, One Wants No King, The Other Wants No Equal.

He Who Allows Himself To Be Insulted Deserves To Be So; And Insolence, If Unpunished, Increases! [lat., Qui Se Laisse Outrager, Merite Qu'on L'outrage Et L'audace Impunie Enfle Trop Un Courage.]

If Anyone Wants To Know What Elephants Are Like, They Are Like People Only More So.
