I Do Not Much Wish Well To

This Is My History; Like All Other Histories, A Narrative Of Misery.

To Hear Complaints Is Wearisome Alike To The Wretched And The Happy.

I Have All My Life Long Been Lying In Bed Till Noon; Yet I Tell All Young Men, And Tell Them With Great Sincerity, That Nobody Who Does Not Rise Early Will Ever Do Any Good.

Rash Oaths, Whether Kept Or Broken, Frequently Produce Guilt.

It Is Not Easy To Surround Life With Any Circumstances In Which Youth Will Not Be Delightful.
