Minds differ still more than faces.
Let us cultivate our garden.
If this is the best of possible worlds, what then are the others?
Tyrants have always some slight shade of virtue; they support the laws before destroying them.
The worthy administrators of justice are like a cat set to take care of a cheese, lest it should be gnawed by the mice. One bite of the cat does more damage to the cheese than twenty mice can do.
The best government is a benevolent tyranny tempered by an occasional assassination.
