Greek • Author
We would often be sorry if our wishes were gratified.
Affairs are easier of entrance than of exit; and it is but common prudence to see our way out before we venture in.
Men often applaud an imitation and hiss the real thing.
It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow.
The smaller the mind the greater the conceit.
He that always gives way to others will end in having no principles of his own.
