The Art Of Conversation Is The Art

The Imagination Is Of So Delicate A Texture That Even Words Wound It.

Prosperity Is A Great Teacher; Adversity Is A Greater. Possession Pampers The Mind; Privation Trains And Strengthens It.

The Vices Are Never So Well Employed As In Combating One Another.

Silence Is One Great Art Of Conversation. He Is Not A Fool Who Knows When To Hold His Tongue; And A Person May Gain Credit For Sense, Eloquence, Wit, Who Merely Says Nothing To Lessen The Opinion Which Others Have Of These Qualities In Themselves.

In What We Really Understand, We Reason But Little.
