Eaton Stemmerd Barrett

If you would make use of BOLD PERSONS with safety, you must not
give them the command in chief, but let them be seconds, and under the
direction of others.

These men when they have taken upon themselves mighty matters, and
failed most shamefully in them, yet having the perfection of BOLDNESS,
they shall make a jest of it, give themselves a turn, and there it finishes.
VERULAM.

Quodcunque ostendis mihi sic, incredulus odi.
