Vices Are Often Habits Rather Than Passions.

Reason Is The Historian, But Passions Are The Actors.

Opinions, Theories, And Systems Pass By Turns Over The Grindstone Of Time, Which At First Gives Them Brilliancy And Sharpness, But Finally Wears Them Out.

The Cunning Tempter, By Avoiding The Grossness Of Vice, Often Silences Objections.

There Is Nothing So Unready As Readiness Of Wit.

There Is Even The Dignity Of Vice.
