Some Men Are Like Ballads, That Are

Nothing Is Given So Profusely As Advice.

There Are Bad People Who Would Be Less Dangerous If They Were Quite Devoid Of Goodness.

There Are No Circumstances, However Unfortunate, That Clever People Do Not Extract Some Advantage From.

A Lofty Mind Always Thinks Nobly, It Easily Creates Vivid, Agreeable, And Natural Fancies, Places Them In Their Best Light, Clothes Them With All Appropriate Adornments, Studies Others' Tastes, And Clears Away From Its Own Thoughts All That Is Useless And Disagreeable.

We Would Rather Speak Ill Of Ourselves Than Not Talk About Ourselves At All.
