All The Passions Make Us Commit Faults;

Before We Passionately Desire A Thing, We Should Examine The Happiness Of Its Possessor.

There Are Few Virtuous Women Who Are Not Bored With Their Trade.

If Vanity Does Not Entirely Overthrow The Virtues, At Least It Makes Them All Totter.

Nothing Is More Contagious Than Example, And No Man Does Any Exceeding Good Or Exceeding Ill But It Spawns New Deeds Of The Same Kind. The Good We Imitate Through Emulation, The Ill Through The Malignity Of Our Nature, Which Shame Keeps Locked Up, But Example Sets Free.

The Vivacity That Augments With Years Is Not Far From Folly.
