No man safely goeth abroad, Thomas a Kempis

No man safely goeth abroad who loveth not to rest at home. 
No man safely talketh but he who loveth to hold his peace. 
No man safely ruleth but he who loveth to be subject. 
No man safely commandeth but he who loveth to obey... 

Thomas a Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ [1418]
