If I have done any deed worthy of remembrance, that deed will be my monument. If not, no monument can preserve my memory.
Royalty consists not in vain pomp, but in great virtues
By sowing frugality we reap liberty, a golden harvest.
I shall show that the place does not honor the man, but the man the place.
If I have done any honorable exploit, that is my monument; but if I have done none, all your statues will signify nothing.
If all men were just there would be no need of valor.
Valor would cease to be a virtue, if there were no injustice.
