Beautiful Coquettes Are Quacks Of Love.

The Happiness And Misery Of Men Depend No Less On Temper Than Fortune.

The Passions Possess A Certain Injustice And Self Interest Which Makes It Dangerous To Follow Them, And In Reality We Should Distrust Them Even When They Appear Most Trustworthy.

Hope And Fear Are Inseparable. There Is No Hope Without Fear, Nor Any Fear Without Hope.

If There Be A Love Pure And Free From The Admixture Of Our Other Passions, It Is That Which Lies Hidden In The Bottom Of Our Heart, And Which We Know Not Ourselves.

No Men Are Oftener Wrong Than Those That Can Least Bear To Be So.
