He Who Imitates What Is Evil Always

...be More Guided By Hope Than Fear.

Waste No Time With Revolutions That Do Not Remove The Causes Of Your Complaints But Simply Change The Faces Of Those In Charge.

How Much Luckier Than All The Rest Of Mankind Are The Astrologers Who, If They Tell One Truth Among A Hundred Lies, Obtain So Much Credit That Even Their Lies Are Believed.

He Is Less Likely To Be Mistaken Who Looks Forward To A Change In The Affairs Of The World Than He Who Regards Them As Firm And Stable.

Let No One Trust So Entirely To Natural Prudence As To Persuade Himself That It Will Suffice To Guide Him Without Help From Experience.
