I Am Writing My Life To Laugh

By Recollecting The Pleasures I Have Had Formerly, I Renew Them, I Enjoy Them A Second Time, While I Laugh At The Remembrance Of Troubles Now Past, And Which I No Longer Feel.

I Have Lived As A Philosopher And Die As A Christian.

You Will Be Amused When You See That I Have More Than Once Deceived Without The Slightest Qualm Of Conscience, Both Knaves And Fools.

The Pleasure I Gave My Lovers Was A Four Fifth Of The Pleasure I Experienced.

Praise The Beautiful For Their Intelligence And The Intelligent For Their Beauty.
