Sir, As A Man Advances In Life,

Love Has No Great Influences Upon The Sum Of Life.

By Forbearing To Do What May Innocently Be Done, We May Add Hourly New Vigor To Resolution.

The Natural Progress Of The Works Of Men Is From Rudeness To Convenience, From Convenience To Elegance, And From Elegance To Nicety.

Reflect That Life, Like Every Other Blessing, Derives Its Value From Its Use Alone.

There Prevails Among Men Of Letters, An Opinion, That All Appearance Of Science Is Particularly Hateful To Women; And That Therefore Whoever Desires To Be Well Received In Female Assemblies, Must Qualify Himself By A Total Rejection Of All That Is Serious, Rational, Or Important; Must Consider Argument Or Criticism As Perpetually Interdicted; And Devote All His Attention To Trifles, And All His Eloquence To Compliment.
