Erasmus
It is in vain to gather virtues without humility; for the Spirit of God delighteth to dwell in the hearts of the humble.
Erasmus.
Love that has nothing but beauty to keep it in good health is short-lived, and apt to have ague fits.Erasmus.

His eloquent tongue so well seconds his fertile invention that no one speaks better when suddenly called forth. His attention never languishes, his mind is always before his words; his memory has all its stock so turned into ready money that without hesitation or delay it supplies whatever the occasion may require.Erasmus: On Sir Thomas More: Erasmus’ Epist.
