Few People Know Anything Of The English

I Always Wish To Find Great Virtues Where There Are Great Talents, And To Love What I Admire.

I Never Invite Idiots To My House.

Among Many Reasons For Being Stupid It May Be Urged, It Is Being Like Other People, And Living Like One's Neighbours, And Indeed Without It, It May Be Difficult To Love Some Neighbours As Oneself: Now Seeing The Necessity Of Being Dull, You Won't, I Hope, Take It Amiss That You Find Me So.

You Will Find Many A Creature By Earth, Air, And Water, That Is More Beautiful Than A Woman.

It Is More To My Personal Happiness And Advantage To Indulge The Love And Admiration Of Excellence, Than To Cherish A Secret Envy Of It.
