No Friendship Is So Cordial Or So

An Ingenuous Mind Feels In Unmerited Praise The Bitterest Reproof. If You Reject It You Are Unhappy, If You Accept It You Are Undone.

No Friendship Is So Cordial Or So Delicious As That Of Girl For Girl; No Hatred So Intense And Immovable As That Of Woman For Woman.

I Warmed Both Hands Before The Fire Of Life; It Sinks, And I Am Ready To Depart.

Men, Like Nails, Lose Their Usefulness When They Lose Their Direction And Begin To Bend.

Avoid, Which Many Grave Men Have Not Done, Words Taken From Sacred Subjects And From Elevated Poetry: These We Have Seen Vilely Prostituted. Avoid Too The Society Of The Barbarians Who Misemploy Them.
