| Adam Ferguson
In every commercial state, notwithstanding any pretension to equal rights, the exaltation of a few must depress the many. The artist finds, that the more he can confine his attention to a particular part of any work, his productions are the more perfect, and grow under his hands in the greater quantities. The cunning man uses deceit, but the more cunning man shuns deception.The history of mankind is confined within a limited period, and from every quarter brings an intimation that human affairs have had a beginning. |
