Populaire passages
Pagina xci - Convey thy love to thy friend as an arrow to the mark, to stick there ; not as a ball against the wall, to rebound back to thee : that friendship will not continue to the end that is begun for an end.
Pagina clxvii - Not to give to the poor, is to take from him. Not to feed the hungry, if thou hast it, is to the utmost of thy power to kill him. That, therefore, thou mayst avoid both sacrilege and murder, be charitable. Hath any wronged thee ? Be bravely revenged : slight it, and the work's begun ; forgive it, and 'tis finished : he is below himself that is not above an injury.
Pagina xlix - If thou receivest not his words, they fly back and wound the reporter. If thou dost receive them, they fly forward, and wound the receiver. — Lavater.
Pagina xxxv - It is more excellent for a prince to have a provident eye for the preventing future mischiefes, than to have a potent arme for the suppressing present evils. Mischiefes in a state are like hectique feavers in a body : In the beginning, hard to be knowne, but easie to be cured ; but, let it alone a while, it becomes more easie to be knowne, but more hard to be cured.
Pagina xlix - ... too straight nor too loosely bound, but easie to lye open to every eye : follow not every copy, lest thou be good at none : among them all chuse one that shall be most legible and usefull, and fullest of instructions. But if the paper chance to have a blot, remember, the blot is no part of the copy.
Pagina ccix - BEFORE thou reprehend another, take heed thou art not culpable in what thou goest about to reprehend. He that cleanses a blot with blotted fingers, makes a greater blur.
Pagina xlix - Wisdom without innocency is knavery ; innocency without wisdom is foolery : be therefore as wise as serpents, and innocent as doves. The subtilty of the serpent instructs the innocency of the dove ; the innocency of the dove corrects the subtilty of the serpent. What God hath joined together, let no man separate.
Pagina xlix - Proportion thy charity to the strength of thy estate, lest God proportion thy estate to the weakness of thy charity ; let the lips of the poor be the trumpet of thy gift, lest in seeking applause, thou lose thy reward. Nothing is more pleasing to God than an open hand and a close mouth.
Pagina xlix - If thou expect death as a friend, prepare to entertain it : if thou expect death as an enemy, prepare to overcome it : death has no advantage, but when it comes a stranger.
Pagina ccxi - If thou hide thy treasure upon the earth, how canst thou expect to find it in heaven? Canst thou hope to be a sharer where thou hast reposed no stock ? What thou givest to God's glory, and thy soul's health, is laid up in heaven, and is only thine ; that alone which thou exchangest, or hidest upon earth, is lost.
