Ben Jonson

True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in the worth and choice. ”

Vice Is like a fury to the vicious mind, And turns delight itself to punishment. ”

Success produces confidence; confidence relaxes industry, and negligence ruins the reputation which accuracy had raised. ”

Talking is the disease of age. ”

Good men are the stars, the planets of the ages wherein they live, and illustrate the times. ”
