Quarrels never could last long, if on one side only lay the wrong.

Nor eye in a letter, nor hand in a purse, nor ear in the secret of another.

The madness of mobs or the insolence of soldiers, or both, when too near to each other, occasion some mischief.

I hope...that mankind will at length, as they call themselves reasonable creatures, have reason and sense enough to settle their differences without cutting throats; for in my opinion there never was a good war, or a bad peace.

When in doubt, don't.

Everybody's human-everybody makes mistakes. If you laugh it off and keep going and try to give it your best the next time around, people respect that.

Take heed of the Vinegar of sweet Wine, and the Anger of Good-nature.
