More From Fanny Burney

. . . Men Seldom Risk Their Lives Where An Escape Is Without Hope Of Recompense.

To A Heart Formed For Friendship And Affection The Charms Of Solitude Are Very Short-lived.

You Must Not Sneeze. If You Have A Vehement Cold You Must Take No Notice Of It; If Your Nose Membranes Feel A Great Irritation You Must Hold Your Breath; If A Sneeze Still Insists Upon Making Its Way You Must Oppose It Keeping Your Teeth Grinding Together; If The Violence Of The Pulse Breaks Some Blood-vessel You Must Break The Blood-vessel -- But Not Sneeze.

Falsehood Is Not More Unjustifiable Than Unsafe.

You Must Learn Not Only To Judge But To Act For Yourself.
