Necessity never made a good bargain.
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.
Never confuse motion with action.
He that lives upon hope will die fasting.
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
Wish not so much to live long as to live well.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have either one.
Where liberty is, there is my country.
