True greatness is sovereign wisdom. We are never deceived by our virtues.

Nature has given women two painful but heavenly gifts, which distinguish them, and often raise them above human nature,--compassion and enthusiasm. By compassion, they devote themselves; by enthusiasm they exalt themselves.

Friendship, sweet-resting place of the soul, the gloaming wherein our hearts find peace.

Let us enjoy the fugitive hour. Man has no harbor, time has no shore; it rushes on, and carries us with it.

Women have much more heart and much more imagination than men; hence, fancy often allures them.

Inspiration is solitary, never consecutive.

Joy is a flame which association alone can keep alive, and which goes out unless communicated.
