Francis Bacon

Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor. 
Francis Bacon
A man that studieth revenge keeps his own wounds green. 
Francis Bacon 
A bachelor's life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner. 
Francis Bacon 

A prudent question is one-half of wisdom. 
Francis Bacon 
A sudden bold and unexpected question doth many times surprise a man and lay him open. 
Francis Bacon 
A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion. 
Francis Bacon 
A man must make his opportunity, as oft as find it. 
Francis Bacon
A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds. 
Francis Bacon 
Acorns were good until bread was found. 
Francis Bacon 
Age appears to be best in four things; old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read. 
Francis Bacon
