As The Great Ones Of This World

None But Great Men Are Capable Of Having Great Flaws.

It Is Great Folly To Wish To Be Wise All Alone.

What Seems To Be Generosity Is Often No More Than Disguised Ambition, Which Overlooks A Small Interest In Order To Secure A Great One.

Avarice Misapprehends Itself Almost Always. There Is No Passion Which More Often Will Miss Its Aim, Nor Upon Which The Present Has So Much Influence To The Prejudice Of The Future.

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