A man, groundly learned already, may take much profit himself in using by epitome to draw other men’s works, for his own memory sake, into short room.

It is costly wisdom that is brought by experience.

It is a pity that, commonly, more care is had--yea, and that among very wise men--to find out rather a cunning man for their horse than a cunning man for their children.

The least learned, for the most part, have been always most ready to write.

To speak as the common people do, to think as wise men do is style.

Learning teacheth more in one year than experience in twenty.

In mine opinion, love is fitter than fear, gentleness better than beating, to bring up a child rightly in learning.
