Imitation is suicide.
The greatest homage we can pay truth is to use it.
We must be our own before we can be another's.
Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
The reward of a thing well done is having done it.
Happy is the hearing man; unhappy the speaking man.
The faith that stands on authority is not faith.
The earth laughs in flowers.
No change of circumstances can repair a defect of character.
Happiness is a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.
