“If the lion knew his own strength, hard were it for any man to rule him.”
Sir Thomas More

Thomas More
“[how can anyone] be silly enough to think himself better than other people, because his clothes are made of finer woolen thread than theirs. After all, those fine clothes were once worn by a sheep, and they never turned it into anything better than a sheep.”
Thomas More, Utopia

“You wouldn't abandon ship in a storm just because you couldn't control the winds.”
Thomas More, Utopia

Thomas More
“Why do you suppose they made you king in the first place?' I ask him. 'Not for your benefit, but for theirs. They meant you to devote your energies to making their lives more comfortable, and protecting them from injustice. So your job is to see that they're all right, not that you are - just as a shepherd's job, strictly speaking, is to feed his sheep, not himself.”
Thomas More, Utopia

Thomas More
“Pride thinks its own happiness shines the brighter, by comparing it with the misfortunes of other persons; that by displaying its own wealth they may feel their poverty the more sensibly.”
Sir Thomas More, Utopia
