The world is full of fools and faint hearts; and yet everyone has courage enough to bear the misfortunes, and wisdom enough to manage the affairs, of his neighbor.

Snowy winter, a plentiful harvest.

The height of foolishness is to discard an opportunity without full investigation

What signifies knowing the Names, if you know not the Natures of things.

I am lord of myself, accountable to none.

He that can have patience can have what he will.

The problem with doing nothing is not knowing when you're finished.
