Every man was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
One should not talk of hatters in the house of the hanged.
Let the worst come to the worst.
Historians ought to be precise, faithful, and unprejudiced; and neither interest nor fear, hatred nor affection, should make them swerve from the way of truth.
Behind the cross is the devil.
Where envy reigns virtue can't exist, and generosity doesn't go with meanness.
