Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon
The person is a poor judge who by an action can be disgraced more in failing than they can be honored in succeeding.
Francis Bacon
A principal fruit of friendship, is the ease and discharge of the fullness and swellings of the heart, which passions of all kinds do cause and induce.
Francis Bacon
There is another ground of hope that must not be omitted. Let men but think over their infinite expenditure of understanding, time, and means on matters and pursuits of far less use and value whereof, if but a small part were directed to sound and solid studies, there is no difficulty that might not be overcome.
Francis Bacon
Man seeketh in society comfort, use and protection.
Francis Bacon
Cure the disease and kill the patient.
