When A Man Says He Had Pleasure

Most Men Think Indistinctly, And Therefore Cannot Speak With Exactness . . .

The Safe And General Antidote Against Sorrow Is Employment. It Is Commonly Observed, That Among Soldiers And Seamen, Though There Is Much Kindness, There Is Little Grief; They See Their Friend Fall Without Any Of That Lamentation Which Is Indulged In Security And Idleness, Because They Have No Leisure To Spare From The Care Of Themselves; And Whoever Shall Keep His Thoughts Equally Busy Will Find Himself Equally Unaffected With Irretrievable Losses.

Pleasure Itself Is Not A Vice

A Book Should Teach Us To Enjoy Life, Or To Endure It.

It Is In Refinement And Elegance That The Civilized Man Differs From The Savage.
