He Is Safe Who Admits No One

We Would Rather Speak Ill Of Ourselves Than Not Talk About Ourselves At All.

There Are Two Sorts Of Constancy In Love One Arises From Continually Discovering In The Loved Person New Subjects For Love, The Other Arises From Our Making A Merit Of Being Constant.

A Man Would Rather Say Evil Of Himself Than Say Nothing.

Some Crimes Get Honor And Renown By Being Committed With More Pomp, By A Greater Number, And In A Higher Degree Of Wickedness Thanothers. Hence It Is That Public Robberies, Plunderings, And Sackings Have Been Looked Upon As Excellencies And Noble Achievements, And The Seizing Of Whole Countries, However Unjustly And Barbarously, Is Dignified With The Glorious Name Of Gaining Conquests.

Our Temper Sets A Price Upon Every Gift That We Receive From Fortune.
