He that will write well in any tongue, must follow this counsel of Aristotle, to speak as the common people do, to think as wise men do; and so should every man understand him, and the judgment of wise men allow him.

-Ascham, Roger
  Toxophilus,'To all Gentlemen andYeomen of England'.

If ever I should condescend to prose, I'll write poetical commandments, which Shall supersede beyond all doubt all those That went before; in these I shall enrich My text with many things that no one knows, And carry precept to the highest pitch: I'll call the work 'Longinus o'er a Bottle, Or, Every Poet his own Aristotle'.

-Rochdale
^24  Don Juan, canto1, stanza 204.

   I shall never be persuaded that God hath shut up all light of learning within the lantern of Aristotle's brain.

-Raleigh, Sir Walter
  The History of theWorld.
