We Say Little, When Vanity Does Not

The Violence Done Us By Others Is Often Less Painful Than That Which We Do To Ourselves.

Some Men Are Like Ballads, That Are In Everyone's Mouth A Little While.

Humility Is Often Only A Feigned Submissiveness By Which Men Hope To Bring Other People To Submit To Them; It Is A More Calculated Sort Of Pride.

To Achieve Greatness One Should Live As If They Will Never Die.

We Sometimes Imagine We Hate Flattery, But We Only Hate The Way We Are Flattered.
