Ambition Has Its Disappointments To Sour Us,

Wherever Desirable Superfluities Are Imported, Industry Is Excited, And Thereby Plenty Is Produced. Were Only Necessaries Permitted To Be Purchased, Men Would Work No More Than Was Necessary For That Purpose.

The Great Secret Of Succeeding In Conversation Is To Admire Little, To Hear Much; Always To Distrust Our Own Reason, And Sometimes That Of Our Friends; Never To Pretend To Wit, But To Make That Of Others Appear As Much As Possibly We Can; To Hearken To What Is Said And To Answer To The Purpose.

He That Won't Be Counseled Can't Be Helped. He That Would Have A Short Lent, Let Him Borrow Money To Be Repaid At Easter.

The Man That Walks Wit Crowd, Will Get No Farther Than The Crowd. The Man That Walks Alone, Will Reach Places Unknown.

Do Good To Thy Friend To Keep Him, To Thy Enemy To Gain Him.
