Nature itself cannot err

For it is not the shape, but their use, that makes them angels.

The right of nature... is the liberty each man hath to use his own power, as he will himself, for the preservation of his own nature; that is to say, of his own life.

Prudence is a presumption of the future, contracted from the experience of time past.

If nobody makes you do it, it counts as fun.

This I know; God cannot sin, because his doing a thing makes it just, and consequently, no sin.... And therefore it is blasphemy to say, God can sin; but to say, that God can so order the world, as a sin may be necessarily caused thereby in a man, I do not see how it is any dishonor to him.

By how much one man has more experience of things past, than another, by so much also he is more prudent, and his expectations the seldomer fail him.
