"Philosophy is the highest music."
"False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil."
"In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one."
