"Let nobody speak mischief of anybody...." - Quote by Plato

“Arrogance is ever accompanied by folly.”

“Education is teaching our children to desire the right things.”

“A work well begun is half-ended.”

“Be in general virtuous, and you will be happy. At least, you will by such conduct, stand the best chance for such consequences.”

“If proper in their own conduct, what difficulty would they have in governing? But if not able to be proper in their own conduct, how can they demand such conduct from others?”

“A superior man in dealing with the world is not for anything or against anything. He follows righteousness as the standard.”

“Be not thy tongue thy own shame's orator.”

“We love to hear some men speak, though we hear not what they say; the very air they breathe is rich and perfumed, and the sound of their voices falls on the ear like the rustling of leaves or the crackling of the fire. They stand many deep.”

“The brash unbridled tongue, the lawless folly of fools, will end in pain. But the life of wise content is blest with quietness, escapes the storm and keeps its house secure.”
