He Who Lives Without Folly Isn't So

Our Good Qualities Expose Us More To Hatred And Persecution Than All The Ill We Do.

We Give Advice, We Do Not Inspire Conduct.

We Do Not Like To Praise, And Seldom Praise Anyone Without Self-interest.

Fortune Makes Our Virtues And Vices Visible, Just As Light Does The Objects Of Sight.

We Always Get Bored With Those Whom We Bore.
