Theophrastus
The Unseasonable man is one who will go up to a busy person, and open his heart to him. He will serenade his mistress when she has a fever. He will address himself to a man who has been cast in a surety-suit, and request him to become his security. He will come to give evidence when the trial is over.
Theophrastus quotes
If you are an ignorant man, you are acting wisely; but if you have had any education, you are behaving like a fool.
Theophrastus
Superstition would seem to be simply cowardice in regard to the supernatural.




Theophrastus quotes
Time is the most valuable thing a man can spend.
