Dislike What Deserves It, But Never Hate:

Neither Great Nor Good Things Were Ever Attained Without Loss And Hardships. Those That Would Reap And Not Labour, Must Faint With The Wind, And Perish In Disappointments; But An Hair Of My Head Shall Not Fall, Without The Providence Of My Father That Is Over All.

There Can Be No Friendship Where There Is No Freedom. Friendship Loves A Free Air, And Will Not Be Penned Up In Straight And Narrow Enclosures. It Will Speak Freely, And Act So Too; And Take Nothing Ill Where No Ill Is Meant; Nay, Where It Is, 'twill Easily Forgive, And Forget Too, Upon Small Acknowledgments.

Friendship Is The Union Of Spirits, A Marriage Of Hearts, And The Bond Thereof Virtue

Show Is Not Substance; Realities Govern Wise Men.

There Is A Troublesome Humor Some Men Have, That If They May Not Lead, They Will Not Follow; But Had Rather A Thing Were Never Done, Than Not Done Their Own Way, Tho' Other Ways Very Desirable.
