65. oldal - HE that goeth about to persuade a multitude, that they are not so well governed as they ought to be, shall never want attentive and favourable hearers ; because they know the manifold defects whereunto every kind of regiment is subject, but the secret lets and difficulties, which in public proceedings are innumerable and inevitable, they have not ordinarily the judgment to consider.
52. oldal - Gospel the words of our Saviour Christ, that he commanded the children to be brought unto him; how he blamed those that would have kept them from him; how he exhorteth all men to follow their innocency.

74. oldal - The first does much harm to mankind ; and a little good too, to some few : the second does good to none ; no, not to himself. The first can make no excuse to God, or angels, or rational men, for his actions : the second can give no reason or colour, not to the devil himself, for what he does ; he is a slave to Mammon without wages. The first makes a shift to be beloved ; ay, and envied too by some people : the second is the universal object of hatred and contempt.
62. oldal - Cicero chose the middle way between the obstinacy of Cato, and the indolence of Atticus : he preferred always the readiest road to what was right, if it lay open to him ; if not, took the next, that seemed likely...
67. oldal - ... thou fallest from thy employment in public, take sanctuary in an honest retirement, being indifferent to thy gain abroad, or thy safety at home.
