The multitude of fools is a protection to the wise.

No grief is so acute but time ameliorates it.

God's law is 'right reason.' When perfectly understood it is called 'wisdom.' When applied by government in regulating human relations it is called 'justice.

So near is falsehood to truth that a wise man would do well not to trust himself on the narrow edge.

A man would have no pleasures in discovering all the beauties of the universe, even in heaven itself, unless he had a partner to whom he might communicate his joys.

The aim of justice is to give everyone his due.

It is not enough merely possess virtue, as if it were an art; it should be practiced.
