Men Never Desire Anything Very Eagerly Which

Good Taste Comes More From The Judgment Than From The Mind.

It Is With Sincere Affection Or Friendship As With Ghosts And Apparitions,--a Thing That Everybody Talks Of, And Scarce Any Hath Seen.

It Is A Mistake To Imagine, That The Violent Passions Only, Such As Ambition And Love, Can Triumph Over The Rest. Idleness, Languid As It Is, Often Masters Them All; She Influences All Our Designs And Actions, And Insensibly Consumes And Destroys Both Passions And Virtues.

For Most Men The Love Of Justice Is Only The Fear Of Suffering Injustice.

The Surest Way To Be Deceived Is To Consider Oneself Cleverer Than Others.
