That perfect tranquillity of life, which is nowhere to be found but in retreat, a faithful friend and a good library.

Each moment of a happy lover's hour is worth an age of dull and common life.

Tis Love alone can make our Fetters please.

Time lessens all extremes and reduces 'em to mediums and unconcern.

Variety is the soul of pleasure.

Jealousy, the old worm that bites.

God makes all things good; Man meddles with 'em and they become evil.
