Hope, Deceitful As It Is, Carries Us

What We Take For Virtue Is Often Nothing But An Assemblage Of Different Actions, And Of Different Interests, That Fortune Or Our Industry Knows How To Arrange.

Tastes In Young People Are Changed By Natural Impetuosity, And In The Aged Are Preserved By Habit.

The Heart Is Forever Making The Head Its Fool.

What Makes Us So Often Discontented With Those Who Transact Business For Us Is That They Almost Always Abandon The Interest Of Their Friends For The Interest Of The Business, Because They Wish To Have The Honor Of Succeeding In That Which They Have Undertaken.

The Passions Are The Only Orators Which Always Persuade.
