 Men are equal; it is not birth but virtue that makes the difference

 Men argue, nature acts

 Men hate the individual whom they call avaricious only because nothing can be gained from him.

 Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts

 Men use thoughts only to justify their wrongdoings and words only to conceal thier thoughts.

 Men who are occupied in the restoration of health to other men, by the joint exertion of skill and humanity, are above all the great of the earth. They even partake of divinity, since to preserve and renew is almost as noble as to create.

 Minds differ still more than faces

 My life is a struggle.

 My prayer to God is a very short one: ''O Lord, make my enemies look ridiculous!'' God has granted it.

 Nature has always had more power than education

 Nature has made us frivolous to console us for our miseries

 Neither holy, nor Roman, nor Empire.

 No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking.

 No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.
