Facts are the enemy of truth.
For a man to attain to an eminent degree in learning costs him time, watching, hunger, nakedness, dizziness in the head, weakness in the stomach, and other inconveniences.
Hunger is the best sauce in the world.
A stout heart breaks bad luck.
Other men's pains are easily borne.
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.
