Not to be content with Life is the unsatisfactory state of those which destroy themselves; who being afraid to live, run blindly upon their own Death, which no Man fears by Experience.

I am not so much afraid of death, as ashamed thereof, 'tis the very disgrace and ignominy of our natures.

Death hath a thousand doors to let out life. I shall find one.

I can cure the gout or stone in some, sooner than Divinity, Pride, or Avarice in others.

Therefore for Spirits, I am so far from denying their existence that I could easily believe, that not only whole Countries, but particular persons, have their Tutelary and Guardian Angels.

Tis hard to find a whole age to imitate, or what century to propose for example.

Nor do they speak properly who say that time consumeth all things; for time is not effective, nor are bodies destroyed by it.
