Childhood is the sleep of reason.

If there wasn't a God we would have to invent one to keep people sane.

Men speak from knowledge, women from imagination.

When a man dies he clutches in his hands only that which he has given away during his lifetime.

There is no subjection so perfect as that which keeps the appearance of freedom.

In Genoa, the word, libertas can be read on the front of prisons and on the fetters of galley-slaves. The application of this motto is fine and just.

Liberty is not to be found in any form of government; she is in the heart of the free man; he bears her with him everywhere.
