I prefer the company of peasants because they have not been educated sufficiently to reason incorrectly.

I know well what I am fleeing from but not what I am in search of.

I do myself a greater injury in lying than I do him of whom I tell a lie.

I care not so much what I am to others as what I am to myself. I will be rich by myself, and not by borrowing.

He who is not sure of his memory, should not undertake the trade of lying. 

He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears.

He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his reason is weak.

Hath God obliged himself not to exceed the bounds of our knowledge?

Fashion is the science of appearances, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.

Fame and tranquility can never be bedfellows.
