Freedom of speech is the great bulwark of liberty; they prosper and die together: And it is the terror of traitors and oppressors, and a barrier against them. It produces excellent writers, and encourages men of fine genius.

Philosophy as well as foppery often changes fashion.

To err is human, to repent divine; to persist devilish.

In a discreet man's mouth, a public thing is private.

In success be moderate. Humility makes great men twice honourable.

Who is rich? He that is content. Who is that? Nobody.

He that's content hath enough.
