Union of hearts, not hands, does a marriage make, and sympathy of mind keeps love awake.
Man is the circled oak; woman the ivy.
Reason gains all people by compelling none.
Youth is ever apt to judge in haste, and lose the medium in the wild extreme.
Mischief and malice grow on the same branch of the tree of evil.
Shame on those breasts of stone that cannot melt in soft adoption of another's sorrow.
