The fate of empires depends upon the
education of youth.
1t is more honorable TO the head, as
well as to the heart, TO be misled in our
eagerness in the pursuit Of truth, than to
be safe from laundering by contemP, Of
it.
The knowledge Of truth, which is the
presence OF it, and the belief Of truth,
which is the enjoying Of it, is the SOW
eregn good Of human nature.
The good things which belong TO pros
perity are TO be wished, but the good
things that belong to adversely are TO be
admired.
The joys Of parents are secret, and so
are their gFiefs and fears; they cannot VI
ter the one, nor they will not utter the
other.
A mans nature rams either to herbs or
weeds; therefore let him seasoAabIy water
the one and destroy other.
Some in their discourse desire rather
commerdation of viii, IN being able 10
hold all arguments than of judgment in
discerning what is true; as it were praise
TO know what might be said, and lot
what should be said.
The coolHess Of determined manner,
when in earnest, is what few people can
Withstand.
If YOU have not the indulgence to par
don your friends, nor they the same to
pardon you. your friendship will last nc
longer than it can serve both your inter
estS.
Self-Iove is at once the most delicate
and the mcst vigorous of our defects as
nothing wounds il but nothing kills 1t.
Plato, being once asked how long he
meant to he a disciple, said AS long as
am not ashamed of growing better ana
wiser.
Ignorance, as far as learning is con
cerned, is no disgrace to those who have
never possessed The means of improve
ment. 1t is otherwise, however, wher
opportunity has been neglected.
The lessons ofIife is lost. if they do no
impress US with the necessity Of making
ample allowance for the immature con
cluSions of others.
A great advantage Of friendship is the
opportunity of receiving good advice. Il
is dangerous relying always on your own
opinion. Miserable is bis case who,
when he needs, has no one TO admonish
him.
