Old Fools Are Greater Fools Than Young

Moderation In People Who Are Contented Comes From That Calm That Good Fortune Lends To Their Spirit.

Cunning And Treachery Are The Offspring Of Incapacity.

Some Allow Themselves To Be Overcome By Panic, And Others Charge Because They Dare Not Remain At Their Posts. Some May Be Found Whose Courage Is Strengthened By Small Perils That Prepare Them To Face Greater Dangers. Some Are Daring When Facing Swords But Dread Facing Bullets; Others Dread Bullets Little But Fear Facing Swords A Lot.

The Defects Of The Mind, Like Those Of The Face, Grow Worse With Age.

Affected Simplicity Is An Elegant Imposture.
