Zitat des Tages von Joseph Hall:
He is a very humble man, that thinks not himself better than some others.
A reputation once broken may possibly be repaired, but the world will always keep their eyes on the spot where the crack was.
Perfection is the child of time.
We must first pray, that God would make us wise; before we can wish, he would make us happy.
Death borders upon our birth, and our cradle stands in the grave.
A man's opinion is in others; his being is in himself.
He is great enough that is his own master.
Let me know myself; let others guess at me.
And, if I were so low that I accounted myself the worst of all, yet some would account themselves in worse case.
What fools are we, to be besotted with the love of our own trouble, and to hate our liberty and rest!
Let others either envy or pity me; I care not, so long as I enjoy myself.
