A Collection of Apophthegms New and Old is a book written by Francis Bacon, a renowned English philosopher and statesman. The book is a compilation of witty and insightful sayings, also known as apophthegms, that Bacon had collected over the years. The apophthegms in the book cover a wide range of topics, including politics, religion, human nature, and morality. Some of the sayings are humorous, while others are profound and thought-provoking. Bacon's writing style is clear and concise, making the book easy to read and understand. Overall, A Collection of Apophthegms New and Old is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the wisdom of the past and the present.This is Francis Bacon's collection of wise sayings of past personalities. �������The Apophthegms are pointed speeches, and certainly they are of excellent use. �������The words of the wise are as gods, ' saith Solomon. They serve to be interlaced in continued speech. They serve to be recited upon occasion of themselves. I have for my recreation amongst more serious studies, collected some few of them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
