“So, in our wisdom and fair justice we go on - "Giving to dust that is a little gilt, More laud than gold e'er dusted;" proclaiming the merits of the bad wine, and making it, by every token, as enticing as we can; and blessing our stars that the good will be found out by its flavor "without our stir." As it is inestimable, we seek not to win esteem for it; as it is beyond all praise, we bestow no praises upon it.” GivingLittlesFoundWinningStarsJusticeGoes OnBlessingFairsGoldPraiseWineEsteemDustMeritFlavorGood WillTokensProclaimingEnticing Author:Samuel Laman Blanchard

“The great advantages of simulation and dissimulation are three. First to lay asleep opposition and to surprise. For where a man's intentions are published, it is an alarum to call up all that are against them. The second is to reserve a man's self a fair retreat: for if a man engage himself, by a manifest declaration, he must go through, or take a fall. The third is, the better to discover the mind of another. For to him that opens himself, men will hardly show themselves adverse; but will fair let him go on, and turn their freedom of speech to freedom of thought.” IfsMenMindFirstsSelfShowsTurnsFallThreeGoes OnSpeechAdvantageFairsThirdsLaysIntentionSurpriseDeceptionOppositionManifestFreedom Of SpeechReservesDeclarationRetreatFreedom Of ThoughtAdverseSimulationLet Him Go Book:Essays Source: Essays
