Much tongue and much judgment seldom go together.

Of all injustice, that is the greatest which goes under the name of law, and of all sorts of tyranny the forcing of the letter of the law against the equity, is the most insupportable.

There are braying men in the world, as well as braying asses; for what is loud and senseless talking any other than away of braying?

The lowest boor may laugh on being tickled, but a man must have intelligence to be amused by wit.

Much tongue and much judgment seldom go together.

Men talk as if they believed in God, but they live as if they thought there was none; their vows and promises are no more than words, of course.

Live and let live is the rule of common justice.
