More quotes by Francis Bacon
It is a secret both in nature and state, that it is safer to change many things than one.
Francis Bacon
The remedy is worse than the disease.
Francis Bacon
A man cannot speak to his son, but as a father to his wife, but as a husband to his enemy, but upon terms: whereas a friend may speak, as the case requires, and not as it sorteth with the person.
Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon
Atheism is rather in the lip, than in the heart of man.
Francis Bacon
All colours will agree in the dark.
Francis Bacon
The best preservative to keep the mind in health is the faithful admonition of a friend.
Francis Bacon
I hold every man a debtor to his profession from the which as men of course do seek to receive countenance and profit, so ought they of duty to endeavor themselves, by way of amends, to be a help and ornament thereunto.
Francis Bacon
He of whom many are afraid ought himself to fear many.
Francis Bacon
Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education in the elder, a part of experience.
Francis Bacon
Again there is another great and powerful cause why the sciences have made but little progress which is this. It is not possible to run a course aright when the goal itself has not been rightly placed.
Francis Bacon
There is a cunning which we in England call the turning of the cat in the pan which is, when that which a man says to another, he says it as if another had said it to him.
Francis Bacon
All bravery stands upon comparisons.
Francis Bacon
If a man's wit be wandering, let him study the mathematics.
Francis Bacon
Even within the most beautiful landscape, in the trees, under the leaves the insects are eating each other violence is a part of life.
Francis Bacon
