"I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law." "Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit." "A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side." "Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy."

"Fortune has rarely condescended to be the companion of genius." "When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him." "Talent does what it can; genius does what it must."
