It is more tolerable to be refused than deceived..
A great man may commence life in a hovel..
He who is bent on doing evil can never want occasion..
The remedy for wrongs is to forget them..
The coward regards himself as cautious, the miser as thrifty..
It is a bitter dose to be taught obedience after you have learned to rule..
An angry lover tells himself many lies..
He who helps the guilty, shares the crime..
The eyes start love; intimacy perfects it..
It is a fraud to borrow what we are unable to pay..
The honied tongue hath its poison..
Nothing can be done quickly and prudently at the same time..
He is much to be dreaded who stands in dread of poverty..
If life is merely a joke, the question still remains: for whose amusement? No one knows what he can do till he tries..
Men will judge your past deeds by your last..
Friendship neither finds nor makes equals..
Through indecision opportunity is often lost..
You don't know what you can do until you try..
Powerful indeed is the empire of habit..
The swiftest despatch seems slow to desire..
It is sometimes wise to forget who we are..
