WILLIAM
PENN
"Some Fruits of Solitude in Reflections and Maxims" Respect 253. Never esteem any Man, or thy self, the more for Money; nor think the meaner of thy self or another for want of it: Vertue being the just Reason of respecting, and the want of it, of slighting any one. 254. A Man like a Watch, is to be valued for his Goings. 255. He that prefers him upon other accounts, bows to an Idol. 256. Unless Virtue guide us, our Choice must be wrong. 257. An able bad Man, is an ill Instrument, and to be shunned as the Plague. 258. Be not deceived with the first appearances of things, but give thy self Time to be in the right. 259. Show, is not Substance: Realities Govern Wise Men. 260. Have a Care
therefore where there is more Sail than Ballast.
