Danh ngôn của Francis Quarles (Sứ mệnh: 1)

Let the fear of danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.
My mind's my kingdom.
Beware of him that is slow to anger; for when it is long coming, it is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury.
Has fortune dealt you some bad cards. Then let wisdom make you a good gamester.
That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.
Anger may repast with thee for an hour, but not repose for a night; the continuance of anger is hatred, the continuance of hatred turns malice.
If thou desire the love of God and man, be humble, for the proud heart, as it loves none but itself, is beloved of none but itself. Humility enforces where neither virtue, nor strength, nor reason can prevail.
Necessity of action takes away the fear of the act, and makes bold resolution the favorite of fortune.
Put off thy cares with thy clothes; so shall thy rest strengthen thy labor, and so thy labor sweeten thy rest.
Wisdom not only gets, but once got, retains.
