Superstition changes a man to a beast, fanaticism makes him a wild beast, and despotism a beast of burden.
We never forget those who make us blush.
Our self-love can be resigned to the sacrifice of everything but itself.
To exaggerate is to weaken.
To teach successfully we must tell all we know, but only what is adaptable to the student.
We always weaken whatever we exaggerate.
We weaken what we exaggerate.
