BIAS OF PRIENE Greek one of Seven sages (c. 566 BC) Be slow in considering, but resolute in action.       - [Action] He who will lose a present good for one in expectation hath some wit, but a small store of wisdom.       - [Expectation] Hear much; speak little.       - [Speech] It becomes not a law-maker to be a law-breaker.       - [Crime] It is better to decide a difference between enemies than friends, for one of our friends will certainly become an enemy and one of our enemies a friend.       - [Enemies] Monarch, thou wishest to cover thyself with glory; be the first to submit to the laws of thy empire.       - [Government] Most men are bad.       - his motto, inscribed on Temple of Apollo at Delphi,         [Character : Mottoes : Proverbs] Some, by admiring other men's virtues, become enemies to their own vices.       - [Virtue] Speak of the gods as they are.       - [Gods] The greatest misfortune of all is not to be able to bear misfortune.       - [Misfortune] The majority is wicked.       - [Wickedness] The GIGA name and the GIGA logo are trademarks registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
