Tis More Dishonourable To Distrust A Friend

Humility Is Often A False Front We Employ To Gain Power Over Others.

A Man Often Thinks He Rules Himself, When All The While He Is Ruled And Managed; And While His Understanding Directs One Design, His Affections Imperceptibly Draw Him Into Another.

Those Who Most Obstinately Oppose The Most Widely-held Opinions More Often Do So Because Of Pride Than Lack Of Intelligence. They Find The Best Places In The Right Set Already Taken, And They Do Not Want Back Seats.

It Is Not Always From Valor Or From Chastity That Men Are Brave, And Women Chaste.

All Our Qualities, Whether Good Or Bad, Are Unstable And Ambiguous, And Almost All Are At The Mery Of Chance.
