Fortune Blinds Men When She Does Not

There Is Nothing Man Will Not Attempt When Great Enterprises Hold Out The Promise Of Great Rewards.

In War, Mere Appearances Have Had All The Effect Of Realities; And That A Person, Under A Firm Persuasion That He Can Command Resources, Virtually Has Them; That Very Prospect Inspiring Him With Hope And Boldness In His Exertions.

There Is Nothing That Is More Often Clothed In An Attractive Garb Than A False Creed.

It Is When Fortune Is The Most Propitious That She Is Least To Be Trusted.

Men's Minds Are Too Ready To Excuse Guilt In Themselves.
