Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence
Italian polymath of the Renaissance whose areas of interest included invention, drawing, painting, sculpting, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, and cartography.
Happiness depends upon ourselves
It is safer to be silent than to reveal one's secret to any one, and telling him not to mention it
In every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks
The hand of liberality is stronger than the arm of power
To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart
Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment, nothing can fail. Without it, nothing can succeed
