Cristina II Quote

Men always disapprove of what they are not capable of doing.

Ambition often makes traitors.

If man tried to be as good as he tries to appear, he would achieve his goal.

The secret to ridiculing people lies in attributing talent to those who do not have it.

Life is a traffic where losses and gains are balanced.

The smallest fly irritates the most terrible lion.
