People Always Complain About Their Memories, Never

Confidence Always Pleases Those Who Receive It. It Is A Tribute We Pay To Their Merit, A Deposit We Commit To Their Trust, A Pledge That Gives Them A Claim Upon Us, A Kind Of Dependence To Which We Voluntarily Submit.

The Virtues And Vices Are All Put In Motion By Interest.

We Make Promises To The Extent That We Hope-and Keep Them To The Extent That We Fear.

There Is Merit Without Rank, But There Is No Rank Without Some Merit.

We Always Love Those Who Admire Us, But We Do Not Always Love Those Whom We Admire.
