Biography, Especially Of The Great And Good,

You Need Not Tell All The Truth, Unless To Those Who Have A Right To Know It; But Let All You Tell Be Truth.

It Is Well, When The Wise And The Learned Discover New Truths; But How Much Better To Diffuse The Truths Already Discovered, Amongst The Multitude!

Diffusion, Then, Rather Than Discovery, Is The Duty Of Our Government.

Education Then, Beyond All Other Devices Of Human Origin, Is The Great Equalizer Of The Conditions Of Men, The Balance-wheel Of The Social Machinery.

It Is Far More Difficult, I Assure You, To Live For The Truth Than To Die For It.
