Without Humility, We Keep All Our Defects;

The Passions Possess A Certain Injustice And Self Interest Which Makes It Dangerous To Follow Them, And In Reality We Should Distrust Them Even When They Appear Most Trustworthy.

No Persons Are More Frequently Wrong, Than Those Who Will Not Admit They Are Wrong.

We Acknowledge Our Faults In Order To Repair By Our Sincerity The Damage They Have Done Us In The Eyes Of Others.

True Bravery Is Shown By Performing Without Witness What One Might Be Capable Of Doing Before All The World.

Fortune And Humor Govern The World.
