My personal credo as a libertarian conservative: I think all attempts to reform your fellow-citizens or tell them how to live their lives are arrogant and tyrannical. THAT'S why I oppose Leftism. I want people to be free to manage their own lives. Reform is just authoritarianism. People are not playthings for anybody's theories or obsessions.

That which is evil is soon learned.

In a thousand pound of Law there's not an ounce of love.

Manners make often fortunes.

He that uses many words for explaining any subject, doth, like the cuttlefish, hide himself for the most part in his own ink.

Who depends upon another man's table often dines late.

A pound of worry won't pay an ounce of debt.
