Go wisely and slowly. Those who rush stumble and fall.
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
Set honour in one eye and death i' the other, And I will look on both indifferently.
Had I but served my God with half the zeal I served my king, he would not in mine age have left me naked to mine enemies.
It is a good divine that follows his own instructions.
