In The Intercourse Of Life, We Please

Boredom ... Causes Us To Neglect More Duties Than Does Interest.

All Men Are Equally Proud. The Only Difference Is That Not All Take The Same Methods Of Showing It.

Whatever Good Things People Say Of Us, They Tell Us Nothing New.

The Tranquility Or Agitation Of Our Temper Does Not Depend So Much On The Big Things Which Happen To Us In Life, As On The Pleasant Or Unpleasant Arrangements Of The Little Things Which Happen Daily.

Moderation Is An Ostentatious Proof Of Our Strength Of Character.
