Doubt, but still hate!

Among wellborn spirits courage does not depend on age.

I agree to, or rather aspire to, my doom.

Liberty may be of no more use Than stirring up the flame of civil wars; Then, by disorder fatal to the world, One wants no king, the other wants no equal.

Your Christians, whom one persecutes in vain, have something in them that surpasses the human. They lead a life of such innocence,that the heavens owe them some recognition: that they arise the stronger the more they are beaten down is hardly the result of common virtues.

It is the guilt, not the scaffold, which constitutes the shame.
