    Author: Thomas Fuller

Curiosity is a kernel of the forbidden fruit which still sticketh in the throat of a natural man, sometimes to the danger of his choking.

    Author: Thomas Fuller

If thou art a master, be sometimes blind, if a servant, sometimes deaf.

Make not thy friends too cheap to thee, nor thyself to thy friend.

    Author: Thomas Fuller
