When you speak to a man, look on his eyes; when he speaks to you, look on his mouth.

Those who give up liberty for the sake of security, deserve neither liberty nor security.

If you desire many things, many things will seem few.

Nothing brings more pain than too much pleasure; nothing more bondage than too much liberty.

Are you angry that others disappoint you? Remember you cannot depend upon yourself.
