Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Men are often capable of greater things than they perform - They are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent.

Since the generality of persons act from impulse, much more than from principle, men are neither so good nor so bad as we are apt to think them.
Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts.
Men act like brutes in so far as the sequences of their perceptions arise through the principle of memory only, like those empirical physicians who have mere practice without theory.
Men honor what lies within the sphere of their knowledge, but do not realize how dependent they are on what lies beyond it.
Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought.
Men are only clever at shifting blame from their own shoulders to those of others.
Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought.
When a man asks himself what is meant by action he proves that he isn't a man of action. Action is a lack of balance. In order to act you must be somewhat insane. A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking.
