If Our Life Is Unhappy It Is

During The Course Of Our Life We Now And Then Enjoy Some Pleasures So Inviting, And Have Some Encounters Of So Tender A Nature, That Though They Are Forbidden, It Is But Natural To Wish That They Were At Least Allowable. Nothing Can Be More Delightful, Except It Be To Abandon Them For Virtue's Sake.

The First Day One Is A Guest, The Second A Burden, And The Third A Pest.

To Forget Someone Means To Think Of Him.

We Should Laugh Before Being Happy, For Fear Of Dying Without Having Laughed.

A Wise Man Is Not Governed By Others, Nor Does He Try To Govern Them; He Prefers That Reason Alone Prevail.
