César Lasso

“Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century:
Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others;
Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected;
Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it;
Refusing to set aside trivial preferences;
Neglecting development and refinement of the mind;
Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Whatever is produced in haste goes hastily to waste.”
― Saadi

“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
― Oscar Wilde

“Very good laws may be ill timed.”
― Charles-Louis de Secondat, baron de la Brède et de Montesquieu
