The Return Makes One Love The Farewell.

Partake Of Love As A Temperate Man Partakes Of Wine; Do Not Become Intoxicated.

The Mouth Keeps Silent To Hear The Heart Speak.

Vanity And Dignity Are Incompatible With Each Other; Vain Women Are Almost Sure To Be Vulnerable.

Taxes Are A Universal Burden In Moral As Well As In Civil Life. There Is Not A Pleasure, Social Or Otherwise, Which Is Not Assessed By Fate At Its Full Value!

What I Need Is A Woman Who Is Something, Anything: Either Very Beautiful Or Very Kind Or In The Last Resort Very Wicked; Very Witty Or Very Stupid, But Something.
