To make another person hold his tongue, be you first silent.
Haste trips up its own heels, fetters and stops itself.
We learn not for life but for the debating-room.
Our fears are always more numerous than our dangers.
Watch over yourself. Be your own accuser, then your judge; ask yourself grace sometimes, and, if there is need, impose upon yourself some pain.
Death's the discharge of our debt of sorrow.
