“[The Jews have] an attitude of hostility and hatred towards all others.”

Fear is not in the habit of speaking truth.

It belongs to human nature to hate those you have injured.

The more numerous the laws, the more corrupt the government.

By punishing men of talent we confirm their authority.

It is found by experience that admirable laws and right precedents among the good have their origin in the misdeeds of others.

Rumor is not always wrong

All things atrocious and shameless flock from all parts to Rome.

The lust of fame is the last that a wise man shakes off.

Reckless adventure is the fool’s hazard.

Crime, once exposed, has no refuge but in audacity.

The desire for glory clings even to the best men longer than any other passion.

Posterity will pay everyone their due.

Benefits received are a delight to us as long as we think we can requite them; when that possibility is far exceeded, they are repaid with hatred instead of gratitude.

The most detestable race of enemies are flatterers.

Once killing starts, it is difficult to draw the line.

I am my nearest neighbour.

Range is of the ego, form is of the soul.

The ego is kind of a big, unwieldy thing. It’s not so easily tamed or subdued.

So many complaints boil down to the belly ache of the fragile, mortal, ignored ego in a vast and indifferent universe.

You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire; you build egos the size of cathedrals; fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse.

That which is threatening to the ego is liberating to the heart.

They say that only very good friends quarrel. But at the end of the day a quarrel is a fight between two people’s egos.

My ego only needs a good rhythm section.

I was stubborn and refused to chase, I threw my ego away and chased; it does not matter. Some people are just not meant to be.
