Francois de La Rochefoucauld
-
It is easier to know men in general, than men in particular.
-
Few things are impracticable in themselves and it is for want of application, rather than of means, that men fail to succeed.
-
There are a great many men valued in society who have nothing to recommend them but serviceable vices.
-
There is nothing men are so generous of as advice.
-
No men are oftener wrong than those that can least bear to be so.
