Quotes from Randolph

First think, and if thy thoughts approve thy will, Then speak, and after, what thou speak?st fulfil.

Reprove not in their wrath incens?d men, Good counsel comes clean out of season then; But when his fury is appeased and past, He will conceive his fault and mend at last: When he is cool and calm, then utter it; No man gives physic in the midst o? th? fit.

Safe in thy breast close lock up thy intents, For he that knows thy purpose best prevents.

Spare not, nor spend too much, be this thy care, Spare but to spend, and only spend to spare. Who spends too much may want, and so complain; But he spends best that spares to spend again.
