No men are oftener wrong than those that can least bear to be so.
Men as well as women are much oftener led by their hearts than by their understandings.
It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept study advice and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done.
I add this that rational ability without education has oftener raised man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.
