Our Minds Are As Much Given To

To Establish Yourself In The World A Person Must Do All They Can To Appear Already Established.

We Exaggerate The Glory Of Some Men In Order To Detract From That Of Others.

Reconciliation With Our Enemies Is Simply A Desire To Better Our Condition, A Weariness Of War, Or The Fear Of Some Unlucky Thing From Occurring.

The Vices Enter Into The Composition Of The Virtues, As Poisons Into That Of Medicines. Prudence Collects And Arranges Them, And Uses Them Beneficially Against The Ills Of Life.

Gratitude Is Merely The Secret Hope Of Further Favors.
