God multiplies intelligence, which communicates itself, like fire, ad infinitum. Light a thousand torches at one touch, the flame remains always the same.

We should always keep a corner of our heads open and free, that we may make room for the opinions of our friends. Let us have heart and head hospitality.

The evening of life brings with it its lamps.

Living requires but little life; doing requires much.

All are born to observe order, but few are born to establish it.

TIME and truth are friends, though there are many moments hostile to truth.
