What Evil Is There In

If You Want To Annoy Your Neighbors, Tell The Truth About Them.

The Best Thing For A Man To Do Is To Be Born And, Being Born, To Die At Once.

Why Should I Be Ashamed To Describe What Nature Was Not Ashamed To Create?

I Am A Free Man. I Do Not Need To Copy Petrarca Or Boccaccio. My Own Genius Is Enough. Let Others Worry Themselves About Style, And So Cease To Be Themselves. Without A Master, Without A Model, Without A Guide, I Go To Work And Earn My Living, My Well-being And My Fame.

I Love You, And Because I Love You, I Would Sooner Have You Hate Me For Telling You The Truth Than Adore Me For Telling You Lies.
