No Man Profiteth But By The Loss

We Are Christians By The Same Title As We Are Natives Of Perigord Or Germany.

Man In Sooth Is A Marvellous, Vain, Fickle, And Unstable Subject.

... Whoever Believes Anything Esteems That It Is A Work Of Charity To Persuade Another Of It.

Custom Is A Violent And Treacherous School Mistress. She, By Little And Lithe, Slyly And Unperceived, Slips In The Foot Of Her Authority; But Having By This Gentle And Humble Beginning, With The Benefit Of Time, Fixed And Established It, She Then Unmasks A Furious And Tyrannic Countenance, Against Which We Have No More The Courage Or The Power So Much As To Lift Up Our Eyes.

A Wise Man Loses Nothing, If He But Save Himself.
