That queen, of error, whom we call fancy and opinion, is the more deceitful because she does not always deceive.

There are two laws that we had better take to be absolute. The first is that as we cannot exempt ourselves from living in this world, then if we wish to live, we cannot exempt ourselves from using the world.
