The Span Of Life Is Too Short

He Who Will Be Just, Must Be Forc'd To Acknowledge, That Neither Sex Are Always In The Right.

Tis Very Great Pity That They Who Are So Apt To Over-rate Themselves In Smaller Matters, Shou'd, Where It Most Concerns Them To Know, And Stand Upon Their Value, Be So Insensible Of Their Own Worth.

Your Glass Will Not Do You Half So Much Service As A Serious Reflection On Your Own Minds.

Unhappy Is That Grandeur Which Makes Us Too Great To Be Good; And That Wit Which Sets Us At A Distance From True Wisdom.

If None Were To Marry, But Men Of Strict Vertue And Honour, I Doubt The World Would Be But Thinly Peopled.
