Charm strikes the sight, but merit wins the soul.

Speed the soft intercourse from soul to soul, And waft a sigh from Indus to the Pole.

Know, Nature's children all divide her care, The fur that warms a monarch warmed a bear.

Sure of their qualities and demanding praise, more go to ruined fortunes than are raised.

The most positive men are the most credulous.

Genius involves both envy and calumny.

Curse on all laws but those which love has made.
