Virtue is nothing else than right reason
Death takes us piecemeal, not at a gulp.
An old man at school is a contemptible and ridiculous object.
Nothing deters a good man from doing what is honourable.
Nothing is so false as human life, nothing so treacherous. God knows no one would have accepted it as a gift, if it had not been given without our knowledge.
A hungry people listens not to reason, not cares for justice, nor is bent by any prayers.
