It is with our Passions, as it is with Fire and Water, they are 'Good Servants,' but 'Bad Masters.'
You can fool people some of the time, but you can't fool them all of the time.
If you are a friend, why do you bite me so hard? If an enemy, why do you fawn on me?
If you are wise you won't be deceived by the innocent airs of those whom you have once found to be dangerous.
Better be wise by the misfortunes of others than by your own.
Destroy the seed of evil, or it will grow up to your ruin.
