What is denominated discretion in man we call cunning in brutes.
The good, we do it; the evil, that is fortune; man is always right, and destiny always wrong.

Religious contention is the devil's harvest.
To hell with pleasure that's haunted by fear.
The best laid plot can injure its maker, and often a man's perfidy will rebound on himself.
