Francis Bacon
  • He that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils for time is the greatest innovator.

  • Friends are thieves of time.

  • Truth is the daughter of time, not of authority.

  • Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education in the elder, a part of experience.

  • Age appears to be best in four things old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
