Who knows himself a braggart, let him fear this, for it will come to pass that every braggart shall be found an ass.William Shakespeare
2
Had I been placed among those nations which are said to live still in the sweet freedom of nature's first laws, I assure you I should very gladly have portrayed myself here entire and wholly naked. Thus, reader, I am myself the matter of my book; you would be unreasonable to spend your leisure on so frivolous and vain a subject.Michel De Montaigne
