"Let the devil catch you but by a single hair, and you are his forever" — Gotthold Ephraim Lessing

“It is always good men who do the most harm in the world

Whenever a man has cast a longing eye on offices, a rottenness begins in his conduct.

Idleness is sweet, and its consequences are cruel

Power is poison. Its effect on Presidents had always been tragic.

He who knows how to flatter also knows how to slander

Some day science may have the existence of mankind in power, and the human race can commit suicide by blowing up the world
