"Poverty is the parent of revolution and crime" — Aristotle

Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions

Fanatics have their dreams, wherewith they weave a paradise for a sect

Boredom is the root of all evil - the despairing refusal to be oneself.

The cause ceasing, the effect ceases also

Nothing is more conducive to peace of mind than not having any opinions at all

Courage considered in itself or without reference to its causes, is no virtue, and deserves no esteem
