Flatterers are the worst kind...

Flatterers are the worst kind of traitors, for they will strengthen thy imperfections, encourage thee in all evils, correct thee in nothing, but so shadow and paint thy follies and vices as thou shalt never, by their will, discover good from evil, or vice from virtue.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Whosoever, in writing a moder...

Whosoever, in writing a modern history, shall follow truth too near the heels, it may happily strike out his teeth.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Even such is time, that takes...

Even such is time, that takes in trust
Our youth, our joys, our all we have,
And pays us but with age and dust.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

The difference between a rich...

The difference between a rich man and a poor man is this--the former eats when he pleases, and the latter when he can get it.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

If all the world and love wer...

If all the world and love were young,
And truth in every shepherd's tongue,
These pretty pleasures might me move
To live with thee, and be thy love.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Men endure the losses that be...

Men endure the losses that befall them by mere casualty with more patience than the damages they sustain by injustice.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

If thou marry beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which, perchance, will neither last nor please thee one year.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

It is observed in the course ...

It is observed in the course of worldly things, that men's fortunes are oftener made by their tongues than by their virtues; and more men's fortunes overthrown thereby than by vices.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

The first draught serveth for...

The first draught serveth for health, the second for pleasure, the third for shame, the fourth for madness.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

I wish I loved the Human Race...

I wish I loved the Human Race; I wish I loved its silly face; I wish I liked the way it walks; I wish I liked the way it talks; And when I'm introduced to one I wish I thought What Jolly Fun!

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Talking much is a sign of van...

Talking much is a sign of vanity, for the one who is lavish with words is cheap in deeds.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

He that doth not as other men...

He that doth not as other men do, but endeavoureth that which ought to be done, shall thereby rather incur peril than preservation; for who so laboreth to be sincerely perfect and good shall necessarily perish, living among men that are generally evil.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

War begets quiet, quiet idlen...

War begets quiet, quiet idleness, idleness disorder, disorder ruin; likewise ruin order, order virtue, virtue glory, and good fortune.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Remember, that if thou marry ...

Remember, that if thou marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which, perchance, will never last nor please thee one year; and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

A man must first govern himse...

A man must first govern himself ere he is fit to govern a family; and his family ere he be fit to bear the government of the commonwealth.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

But true love is a durable fire, In the mind ever burning, Never sick, never old, never dead, From itself never turning.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

But it is hard to know them f...

But it is hard to know them from friends, they are so obsequious and full of protestations; for a wolf resembles a dog, so doth a flatterer a friend.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

Even such isTime, which takes in trust Our youth, our joys, and all we have, And pays us but with age and dust, Who in the dark and silent grave When we have wandered all our ways Shuts up the story of our days, And from which earth, and grave, and dust The Lord shall raise me up, I trust.

Walter Raleigh 115 quotes

If any friend desire thee to ...

If any friend desire thee to be his surety, give him a part of what thou hast to spare; if he press thee further, he is not thy friend at all, for friendship rather chooseth harm to itself than offereth it. If thou be bound for a stranger, thou art a fool; if for a merchant, thou puttest thy estate to learn to swim.

[It is a basic principle of a tyrant] to unarm his people of weapons, money and all means whereby they resist his power.
