I shall show that the place does not honor the man, but the man the place.
Royalty consists not in vain pomp, but in great virtues
If all men were just there would be no need of valor.
If I have done any honorable exploit, that is my monument; but if I have done none, all your statues will signify nothing.
By sowing frugality we reap liberty, a golden harvest.
Valor would cease to be a virtue, if there were no injustice.
