Truth Does Less Good In The World

It Is With Sincere Affection Or Friendship As With Ghosts And Apparitions,--a Thing That Everybody Talks Of, And Scarce Any Hath Seen.

They That Apply Themselves To Trifling Matters Commonly Become Incapable Of Great Ones.

The Praise We Give To New Comers Into The World Arises From The Envy We Bear To Those Who Are Established.

The Virtues And Vices Are All Put In Motion By Interest.

In All Professions Each Affects A Look And An Exterior To Appear What He Wishes The World To Believe That He Is. Thus We May Say That The Whole World Is Made Up Of Appearances.
