Justice Is Often Pale And Melancholy; But

States, Like Men, Have Their Growth, Their Manhood, Their Decrepitude, Their Decay.

Wherever There Is Excessive Wealth, There Is Also In The Train Of It Excessive Poverty.

In Argument, Truth Always Prevails Finally; In Politics, Falsehood Always.

Do Not Expect To Be Acknowledged For What You Are, Much Less For What You Would Be; Since No One Can Well Measure A Great Man But Upon The Bier.

The Very Beautiful Rarely Love At All; Those Precious Images Are Placed Above The Reach Of The Passions: Time Alone Is Permitted To Efface Them.
