The World, Dear Agnes, Is A Strange

The Envious Will Die, But Envy Never. [fr., Les Envieux Mourront, Mais Non Jamais L'envie.]

To Marry A Fool Is To Be No Fool.

Gold Makes The Ugly Beautiful.

We Ought Always To Conform To The Manners Of The Greater Number, And So Behave As Not To Draw Attention To Ourselves. Excess Either Way Shocks, And Every Man Truly Wise Ought To Attend To This In His Dress As Well As Language, Never To Be Affected In Anything And Follow Without Being In Too Great Haste The Changes Of Fashion.

The Less We Deserve Good Fortune, The More We Hope For It.
