There is for a free man no occupation more worthy and delightful than to contemplate the beauteous works of nature and honor the infinite wisdom and goodness of God.
Let him make use of instinct who cannot make use of reason.
The wind in a man's face makes him wise.
Where love fails we espy all faults.
Better the last smile than the first laughter.
The use of butterflies is to adorn the world and delight the eyes of men, to brighten the countryside, serving like so many golden spangles to decorate the fields.
