We Often Forgive Those Who Bore Us,

The Desire Which Urges Us To Deserve Praise Strengthens Our Good Qualities, And Praise Given To Wit, Valour, And Beauty, Tends To Increase Them.

The Heart Is Forever Making The Head Its Fool.

We Own Up To Minor Failings, But Only So As To Convince Others That We Have No Major Ones.

Our Enemies' Opinion Of Us Comes Closer To The Truth Than Our Own.

Those Who Are Incapable Of Committing Great Crimes Do Not Readily Suspect Them In Others.
