Strana 225 - Vestae : obscurata diu populo bonus eruet atque 115 proferet in lucem speciosa vocabula rerum, quae priscis memorata Catonibus atque Cethegis nunc situs informis premit et deserta vetustas ; adsciscet nova, quae genitor produxerit usus : vehemens et liquidus puroque simillimus amni 120 fundet opes Latiumque beabit divite lingua...
Strana xxxiv - But, the truth is, that the knowledge of external nature, and the sciences which that knowledge requires or includes, are not the great or the frequent business of the human mind. Whether we provide for action or conversation...
Strana 227 - cui sic extorta voluptas et demptus per vim mentis gratissimus error».
Strana 51 - Every faculty in one man is the measure by which he judges of the like faculty in another. I judge of your sight by my sight, of your ear by my ear, of your reason by my reason, of your resentment by my resentment, of your love by my love.

Strana 94 - Appetite knowing no restraint, and poverty and suffering having no solace, or hope, would trample in scorn on the restraints of human laws. Virtue, duty, principle, would be mocked and spurned as unmeaning sounds ; a sordid self-interest would supplant every other feeling, and man would become, in fact, what the theory of Atheism declares him to be, a companion for brutes.
Strana 219 - Dura sed emovere loco me tempora grato, Civilisque rudem belli tulit aestus in arma, Caesaris Augusti non responsura lacertis. Unde simul primum me dimisere Philippi, Decisis humilem pennis inopemque paterni 50 Et Laris et fundi paupertas impulit audax, Ut versus facerem...
Strana 233 - Lenior et melior fis accedente senecta ? Quid te exempta juvat spinis de pluribus una? Vivere si recte nescis, decede peritis. Lusisti satis, edisti satis atque bibisti : Tempus abire tibi est, ne potum largius aequo 215 Rideat et pulset lasciva decentius aetas.
Strana 80 - We do not originally approve or condemn particular actions; because, upon examination, they appear to be agreeable or inconsistent with a certain general rule. The general rule, on the contrary, is formed, by finding from experience, that all actions of a certain kind, or circumstanced in a certain manner, are approved or disapproved of.
