Here hills and vales, the woodland and the plain Here earth and water seem to strive again, Not chaos-like together crushed and bruised, But, as the world, harmoniously confused: Where order in variety we see, And where, though all things differ, all agree.

A generous friendship no cold medium knows, Burns with one love, with one resentment glows.

The greatest magnifying glasses in the world are a man's own eyes when they look upon his own person.

Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll; charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

An obstinate person does not hold opinions; they hold them.

A patriot is a fool in ev'ry age.

No woman ever hates a man for being in love with her, but many a woman hate a man for being a friend to her.
