Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
Knowledge is knowing that we cannot know.
We gain the strength of the temptation we resist.
Genius always finds itself a century too early.
Why need I volumes, if one word suffice?
The sum of wisdom is that time is never lost that is devoted to work.
No great man ever complains of want of opportunity.
The years teach much which the days never know.
When nature has work to be done, she creates a genius to do it.
Words are also actions, and actions are a kind of words.
Judge of your natural character by what you do in your dreams.
