Drunkenness does not create vice; it merely brings it into view.
It is medicine, not scenery, for which a sick man must go searching.
Time discovers truth.
No one can hold absolute power for long, controlled power endures.
Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively. Strive to get clear notions about all. Give up no science entirely; for science is but one.
Do not ask for what you will wish you had not got.
