Ambition Makes More Trusty Slaves Than Need

Nothing Is More Short-lived Than Pride.

Good Men Are The Stars, The Planets Of The Ages Wherein They Live, And Illustrate The Times.

Tis Not The Wholesome Sharp Mortality, Or Modest Anger Of A Satiric Spirit, That Hurts Or Wounds The Body Of A State, But The Sinister Application Of The Malicious, Ignorant, And Base Interpreter; Who Will Distort And Strain The General Scope And Purpose Of An Author To His Particular And Private Spleen.

To The Old, Long Life And Treasure; To The Young, All Health And Pleasure.

It Is Less Dishonor To Hear Imperfectly Than To Speak Imperfectly. The Ears Are Excused; The Understanding Is Not.
