The regeneration of society is the regeneration of society by individual education.
Jean de la BruyereA wise man is not governed by others, nor does he try to govern them; he prefers that reason alone prevail.
Jean de la BruyereWhen a work lifts your spirits and inspires bold and noble thoughts in you, do not look for any other standard to judge by: the work is good, the product of a master craftsman.
Jean de la BruyereFalse greatness is unsociable and remote: conscious of its own frailty, it hides, or at least averts its face, and reveals itself only enough to create an illusion and not be recognized as the meanness that it really is. True greatness is free, kind, familiar and popular; it lets itself be touched and handled, it loses nothing by being seen at close quarters; the better one knows it, the more one admires it.
