Quotes by Francis Bacon about Self-control

Francis Bacon English Philosopher

It is a strange desire, to seek power, and to lose liberty; or to seek power over others, and to lose power over a man's self.

Quote by Francis Bacon about self-control

There is as much difference between the counsel that a friend giveth, and that a man giveth himself, as there is between the counsel of a friend and of a flatterer. For there is no such flatterer as is a man's self.
