Everybody Hates A Prodigy, Detests An Old

The Main Hope Of A Nation Lies In The Proper Education Of Its Youth

Love That Has Nothing But Beauty To Keep It In Good Health Is Short-lived.

In Short, No Association Or Alliance Can Be Happy Or Stable Without Me. People Can't Long Tolerate A Ruler, Nor Can A Master His Servant, A Maid Her Mistress, A Teacher His Pupil, A Friend His Friend Nor A Wife Her Husband, A Landlord His Tenant, A Soldier His Comrade Nor A Party-goer His Companion, Unless They Sometimes Have Illusions About Each Other, Make Use Of Flattery, And Have The Sense To Turn A Blind Eye And Sweeten Life For Themselves With The Honey Of Folly.

Great Eagerness In The Pursuit Of Wealth, Pleasure, Or Honor, Cannot Exist Without Sin.

Providence Has Decreed That Those Common Acquisitions, Money, Gems, Plate, Noble Mansions, And Dominion, Should Be Sometimes Bestowed On The Indolent And Unworthy; But Those Things Which Constitute Our True Riches, And Which Are Properly Our Own, Must Be Procured By Our Own Labor.
