Benjamin Whichcote

No man doth think others will be better to him than he is to them.

Some things must be good in themselves, else there could be no measure whereby to lay out good and evil.

Believe things, rather than man.

Man is a wonder to himself; he can neither govern nor know himself.

Right and truth are greater than any power, and all power is limited by right.

Conscience without judgment is superstition.

That power is in vain which is never in use.

It is impossible for a man to be made happy by putting him in a happy place, unless he be first in a happy state.

The government of man should be the monarchy of reason: it is too often the democracy of passions or the anarchy of humors.

There is no better way to learn than to teach.
