Love Is The Smallest Part Of Gallantry.

We Label Judges With Having The Meanest Motives, And Yet We Desire That Our Reputation And Fame Should Depend Upon The Judgment Of Men, Who Are All, Either From Their Jealousy Or Preoccupation Or Want Of Intelligence, Opposed To Us - And Yet Despite Their Bias, Just For The Sake Of Making These Men Decide In Our Favor, We Peril In So Many Ways Both Our Peace And Our Life.

Opportunity Makes Us Known To Others, But More To Ourselves.

What We Take For Virtue Is Often Nothing But An Assemblage Of Different Actions, And Of Different Interests, That Fortune Or Our Industry Knows How To Arrange.

It Is Praiseworthy Even To Attempt A Great Action.

We Frequently Do Good In Order To Enable Us To Do Evil Later With Impunity Exemption Of Punishment.
