A Man Has Need Of Tough Ears

It Is Fear That I Stand Most In Fear Of, In Sharpness It Exceeds Every Other Feeling.

If People Must Be Talking About Me, I Would Have It To Be Truthfully And Justly. I Would Willingly Return From The Next World To Contradict Any Person Who Described Me Other Than I Was, Although He Did It To Honour Me.

~the Value Of Life Lies Not In The Length Of Days, But In The Use We Make Of Them ~

If Others Examined Themselves Attentively, As I Do, They Would Find Themselves, As I Do, Full Of Inanity And Nonsense. Get Rid Of It I Cannot Without Getting Rid Of Myself.

I Have Never Observed Other Effects Of Whipping Than To Render Boys More Cowardly, Or More Willfully Obstinate.
