Roger L'Estrange

“ There's no great Danger in Men of Huff and Bluster: Noise and Pretence without Execution, is only much ado about Nothing; and yet this way of Trifling, is the very Bus'ness and Practice of many that pass in the World for Great Men, though they are much Mistaken that think them so. ”

“ There are Quacks, in short, of all sorts, as Bullies, Pedants, Hypocrites, Empyricks , Law-Jobbers, Politicasters, and the like; and there are Men as well as Black-Birds that are Silly enough not to Diftinguish betwixt a Hawk and a Buzzard. ”
