"The countenance is the portrait of the soul, & the eyes mark its intentions."
"Any man can make mistakes, but only a fool persists in his error."
"The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity & the brute by instinct."
"It is not by muscle, speed or dexterity that great things are achieved, but by reflection, force of character & judgement."
"Rather leave the crime of the guilty unpunished than condemn the innocent."
"The higher we are placed, the more humbly we should walk."
"Cultivation to the mind is as necessary as food to the body."
"Brevity is a great charm of eloquence."
Marcus Tulius Cicero

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
