If You Protect A Man From Folly,

Inquiry Is Human; Blind Obedience Brutal. Truth Never Loses By The One But Often Suffers By The Other.

If We Are But Sure The End Is Right, We Are Too Apt To Gallop Over All Bounds To Compass It; Not Considering The Lawful Ends May Be Very Unlawfully Attained.

Tis The Glory Of A Man To Vail To Truth; As It Is The Mark Of A Good Nature To Be Easily Entreated.

It Were Happy If We Studied Nature More In Natural Things; And Acted According To Nature, Whose Rules Are Few, Plain, And Most Reasonable.

The Tallest Trees Are Most In The Power Of The Winds, And Ambitious Men Of The Blasts Of Fortune.
