 Of manners gentle, of affections mild; In wit a man, simplicity a child

 Of manners gentle, of affections mild; In wit a man, simplicity a child

 Order is Heaven's first law

 Say first, of God above or man below, What can we reason but from what we know?

 So vast is art, so narrow human wit.

 Spreads his light wings, and in a moment flies.

 The difference is too nice - Where ends the virtue or begins the vice

 The greatest magnifying glasses in the world are a man's own eyes when they look upon his own person

 The learned is happy, nature to explore; The fool is happy, that he knows no more

 The same ambition can destroy or save, and make a patriot as it makes a knave.

 The way of the Creative works through change and transformation, so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny and comes into permanent accord with the Great Harmony: this is what furthers and what perseveres.

 There is a certain majesty in simplicity which is far above all the quaintness of wit.

 To be angry is to revenge the faults of others upon ourselves

 True politeness consists in being easy one's self, and in making every one about one as easy as one can

 Trust not yourself, but your defects to know. Make use of every friend and every foe.
