Learning makes the wise wiser and the fool more foolish.

To those we love best we say the least

A multitude of words doth rather obscure than illustrate, they being a burden to the memory, and the first apt to be forgotten, before we come to the last. So that he that uses many words for the explaining of any subject, doth, like the cuttle-fish, hide himself, for the most part, in his own ink.

The heart is the first part that quickens, and the last that dies.

Every animal is providentially directed to the use of its proper weapon.
