Dignity And Love Were Never Yet Boon

Gaming Is A Vice The More Dangerous As It Is Deceitful; And, Contrary To Every Other Species Of Luxury, Flatters Its Votaries With The Hopes Of Increasing Their Wealth; So That Avarice Itself Is So Far From Securing Us Against Its Temptations That It Often Betrays The More Thoughtless And Giddy Part Of Mankind Into Them.

Commend A Fool For His Wit, Or A Rogue For His Honesty And He Will Receive You Into His Favour.

There Is Perhaps No Surer Mark Of Folly, Than To Attempt To Correct Natural Infirmities Of Those We Love.

Good-breeding Is Not Confined To Externals, Much Less To Any Particular Dress Or Attitude Of The Body; It Is The Art Of Pleasing, Or Contributing As Much As Possible To The Ease And Happiness Of Those With Whom You Converse.

Heroes, Notwithstanding The High Ideas Which, By The Means Of Flatterers, They May Entertain Of Themselves, Or The World May Conceive Of Them, Have Certainly More Of Mortal Than Divine About Them.
