No Man Is Happy; He Is At

No More Good Must Be Attempted Than The Nation Can Bear

Watch Well Each Separate Citizen, Lest Having In His Heart Of Hearts A Secret Spear, One Still May Come Saluting You With Cheerful Face, And Utter With A Double Tongue The Feigned Good Wishes Of His Wary Mind.

If Things Are Going Well, Religion And Legislation Are Beneficial; If Not, They Are Of No Avail.

Chide A Friend In Private And Praise Him In Public.

Put More Trust In Nobility Of Character Than In An Oath.
