The proper study of Mankind is Man.
Men would be angels, angels would be gods.
The most positive men are the most credulous, since they most believe themselves, and advise most with their falsest flatterer and worst enemy--their own self-love.
Fear not the anger of the wise to raise; Those best can bear reproof who merit praise.
A perfect woman's but a softer man.
Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.
