Our Self-love Can Less Bear To Have

As The Great Ones Of This World Are Unable To Bestow Health Of Body Or Peace Of Mind, We Always Pay Too High A Price For Any Good They Can Do.

Though Men Are Apt To Flatter And Exalt Themselves With Their Great Achievements, Yet These Are, In Truth, Very Often Owing Not So Much To Design As Chance.

Misers Mistake Gold For Their Good; Whereas 'tis Only A Means Of Attaining It.

Hatred Is Stronger Than Friendship.

We Do Not Despise All Those Who Have Vices, But We Do Despise Those That Have No Virtue.
