“You're mistaken: men of sense often learn from their enemies. Prudence is the best safeguard. This principle cannot be learned from a friend, but an enemy extorts it immediately. It is from their foes, not their friends, that cities learn the lesson of building high walls and ships of war. And this lesson saves their children, their homes, and their properties.”
“The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.”
“Thin-lipped wisdom spoke at her from the worn chair, hinted at prudence, quoted from that book of cowardice whose author apes the name of common sense.”
“Great Estates may venture more. Little Boats must keep near Shore.”
“Prevention is the daughter of intelligence.”
“Try therefor before ye trust; look before ye leap.”
