Virtue, Like Wholesome Food, Is Better Than

To Hate, To Love, To Think, To Feel, To See; All This Is Nothing But To Perceive.

Among The Arts Of Conversation No One Pleases More Than Mutual Deference Or Civility, Which Leads Us To Resign Our Own Inclinations To Those Of Our Companions, And To Curb And Conceal That Presumption And Arrogance So Natural To The Human Mind.

All Inferences From Experience... Are Effects Of Custom, Not Of Reasoning.

Such Is The Nature Of Novelty That Where Anything Pleases It Becomes Doubly Agreeable If New; But If It Displeases, It Is Doubly Displeasing On That Very Account.

Custom Is The Great Guide To Human Life.
