I lay it down as a fact that if all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world
French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer and Catholic theologian.
It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the truth
Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back
Dull minds are never either intuitive or mathematical
I would prefer an intelligent hell to a stupid paradise
Kind words don't cost much. Yet they accomplish much
To make light of philosophy is to be a true philosopher
It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered
You only lose what you cling to
Aspire to inspire before we expire
The rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened
We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out
All persons ought to endeavor to follow what is right, and not what is established.
