Man is a reasoning Animal.
...nothing is so entirely admirable as a man bravely wretched.

When once ambition has passed its natural limits, its progress is boundless.
If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.
No man is born wise; but wisdom and virtue require a tutor; though we can easily learn to be vicious without a master.
