  • Fear of things invisible in the natural seed of that which everyone in himself calleth religion.

  • The flesh endures the storms of the present alone the mind, those of the past and future as well as the present. Gluttony is a lust of the mind.

  • Science is the knowledge of consequences, and dependence of one fact upon another.

  • Such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be more witty, or more eloquent, or more learned yet they will hardly believe there be many so wise as themselves.
