Famous quotes containing the words chief and/or counsel:
“When we do not know the truth of a thing, it is of advantage that there should exist a common error which determines the mind of man.... For the chief malady of man is restless curiosity about things which he cannot understand; and it is not so bad for him to be in error as to be curious to no purpose.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“It is a light thing for whoever keeps his foot outside trouble to advise and counsel him that suffers.”
—Aeschylus (525456 B.C.)
