The Only Thing That Should Surprise Us

When Our Vices Leave Us, We Like To Imagine It Is We Who Are Leaving Them.

It Is The Prerogative Of Great Men Only To Have Great Defects.

We Pardon To The Extent That We Love.

What Renders Us So Changeable In Our Friendship Is, That It Is Difficult To Know The Qualities Of The Soul, But Easy To Know Those Of The Mind.

When Our Vices Desert Us, We Flatter Ourselves That We Are Deserting Our Vices.
