Strangers are welcome because there is room enough for them all, and therefore the old Inhabitants are not jealous of them; the Laws protect them sufficiently so that they have no need of the Patronage of great Men; and every one will enjoy securely the Profits of his Industry.

A good spouse and health is a person's best wealth.

Constant dropping wears away stones

Nature performs the cure, the physician takes the fee.
