While We Desire, We Do Not Enjoy;

The Safest Kind Of Praise Is To Foretell That Another Will Become Great In Some Particular Way. It Has The Greatest Show Of Magnanimity And The Least Of It In Reality.

Diffidence And Awkwardness Are Antidotes To Love.

There Is Not A More Mean, Stupid, Dastardly, Pitiful, Selfish, Spiteful, Envious, Ungrateful Animal Than The Public. It Is The Greatest Of Cowards, For It Is Afraid Of Itself.

A Strong Passion For Any Object Will Ensure Success, For The Desire Of The End Will Point Out The Means.

The True Barbarian Is He Who Thinks Everything Barbarous But His Own Tastes And Prejudices.
