Moliere

Doctors pour drugs of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, into patients of whom they know nothing.

Everyone has a right to his own course of action.

The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.

No one is safe from slander. The best way is to pay no attention to it, but live in innocence and let the world talk.
Moliere - Le D?pit Amoureux (1656)
One dies only once, and then for such a long time!

Rest assured that there is nothing which wounds the heart of a noble man more deeply than the thought his honour is assailed.

Doubts are more cruel than the worst of truths.

- Moliere
