Aphorism #52 Never be put out.

Â’Tis a great aim of prudence never to be embarrassed. It is the sign of a real man. of a noble heart, for magnanimity is not easily putout. The passions are the humours of the soul, and every excess in them weakens prudence; if they overflow through the mouth, the reputation will be in danger. Let a man therefore be so much and so great a master over himself that neither in the most fortunate nor in the most adverse circumstances can anything cause his reputation injury by disturbing his self-possession, but rather enhance it by showing his superiority. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtO...?d=yIl2AUoC8zA http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtO...?d=qj6IDK7rITs
