Francis Bacon quotes
A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion.
A bachelor's life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner.
A man must make his opportunity, as oft as find it.
A man that studieth revenge keeps his own wounds green.
A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.
A sudden bold and unexpected question doth many times surprise a man and lay him open.
A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.
Acorns were good until bread was found.
All rising to great place is by a winding stair.
Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor.
Antiquities are history defaced, or some remnants of history which have casually escaped the shipwreck of time.
As the births of living creatures are at first ill-shapen, so are all innovations, which are the births of time.
Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the Infinite.
Boldness is ever blind, for it sees not dangers and inconveniences whence it is bad in council though good in execution.
Books will speak plain when counsellors blanch.
