The First Thought Is Often The Best.

As This World Was Not Intended To Be A State Of Any Great Satisfaction Or High Enjoyment, So Neither Was It Intended To Be A Mere Scene Of Unhappiness And Sorrow.

Remember Likewise There Are Persons Who Love Fewer Words, An Inoffensive Sort Of People, And Who Deserve Some Regard, Though Of Too Still And Composed Tempers For You.

Compassion Is A Call, A Demand Of Nature, To Relieve The Unhappy As Hunger Is A Natural Call For Food

Thus Self-love As One Part Of Human Nature, And The Several Particular Principles As The Other Part, Are, Themselves, Their Objects And Ends, Stated And Shown.

People Habituate Themselves To Let Things Pass Through Their Minds, As One May Speak, Rather Than To Think Of Them. Thus By Use They Become Satisfied Merely With Seeing What Is Said, Without Going Any Further. Review And Attention, And Even Forming A Judgment, Becomes Fatigue; And To Lay Anything Before Them That Requires It, Is Putting Them Quite Out Of Their Way.
