He Who Lives Without Folly Isn't So

Self-interest Makes Some People Blind, And Others Sharp-sighted.

Neither Love Nor Fire Can Subsist Without Perpetual Motion; Both Cease To Live So Soon As They Cease To Hope, Or To Fear.

Jealousy Springs More From Love Of Self Than From Love Of Another.

All The Passions Are Nothing Else Than Different Degrees Of Heat And Cold Of The Blood.

However Greatly We Distrust The Sincerity Of Those We Converse With, Yet Still We Think They Tell More Truth To Us Than To Anyone Else.
