Women Can Less Easily Surmount Their Coquetry

We Have Not Enough Strength To Follow All Our Reason.

The Judgments Our Enemies Make About Us Come Nearer To The Truth Than Those We Make About Ourselves.

None But The Contemptible Are Apprehensive Of Contempt.

Women's Virtue Is Frequently Nothing But A Regard To Their Own Quiet And A Tenderness For Their Reputation.

Men Are Not Only Prone To Forget Benefits; They Even Hate Those Who Have Obliged Them, And Cease To Hate Those Who Have Injured Them. The Necessity Of Revenging An Injury, Or Of Recompensing A Benefit Seems A Slavery To Which They Are Unwilling To Submit.
