Flattery Is A Base Coin Which Is Current Only Through Our Vanity.

Jealousy Contains More Of Self-love Than Of Love.

Were We Not Proud Ourselves, We Should Not Complain Of The Pride Of Others.

We Are Much Harder On People Who Betray Us In Small Ways Than On People Who Betray Others In Great Ones.
