The life of a wit is a warfare upon earth.
They dream in courtship, but in wedlock wake.
Education forms the common mind. Just as the twig is bent, the tree's inclined.
A wise physician, skill'd our wounds to heal, is more than armies to the public weal.
The dull flat falsehood serves for policy, and in the cunning, truth's itself a lie.
A tree is a nobler object than a prince in his coronation-robes.
