That City In Which Those Who Are

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

Consider Your Honour, As A Gentleman, Of More Weight Than An Oath.

As The Deity Has Given Us Greeks All Other Blessings In Moderation, So Our Moderation Gives Us A Kind Of Wisdom Which Is Timid, In All Likelihood, And Fit For Common People, Not One Which Is Kingly And Splendid. This Wisdom, Such As It Is, Observing That Human Life Is Ever Subject To All Sorts Of Vicissitudes, Forbids Us To Be Puffed Up By The Good Things We Have, Or To Admire A Man's Felicity While There Is Still Time For It To Change.

Learn To Obey Before You Command.

Men Keep Agreements When It Is To The Advantage Of Neither To Break Them.
