Envy has been, is, and shall be, the destruction of many. What is there, that Envy hath not defamed, or Malice left undefiled? Truly, no good thing.

As soon as you awake, in order Lay the actions to be done the coming day.

As soon as laws are necessary for men, they are no longer fit for freedom.

Souls never die, but always on quitting one abode pass to another. All things change, nothing perishes. The soul passes hither and thither, occupying now this body, now that... As a wax is stamped with certain figures, then melted, then stamped anew with others, yet it is always the same wax. So, the Soul being always the same, yet wears at different times different forms.

There is no word or action but has its echo in Eternity.

Above all things, respect yourself.

A stranger, if just, is not only to be preferred before a countryman, but a kinsman.
