To Execute Great Things, One

We Are Not Greatly Pleased That Our Friends Should Respect Our Good Qualities If They Venture To Perceive Our Faults.

None Are More Liable To Mistakes Than Those Who Act Only On Second Thoughts.

Indolence Is The Sleep Of The Mind.

It Is In Our Own Mind And Not In Exterior Objects That We Perceive Most Things; Fools Know Scarcely Anything Because They Are Empty, And Their Heart Is Narrow; But Great Souls Find In Themselves A Number Of Exterior Things; They Have No Need To Read Or Travel Or To Listen Or To Work To Discover The Highest Truths; They Have Only To Delve Into Themselves And Search, If We May Say So, Their Own Thoughts.

Obscurity Is The Kingdom Of Error.
