How I like to be liked, and what I do to be liked!

Positively, the best thing a man can have to do, is nothing, and next to that perhaps — good works.

A clear fire, a clean hearth, and the rigour of the game.

In the indications of female poverty there can be no disguise. No woman dresses below herself from caprice.

Tis the privilege of friendship to talk nonsense, and to have nonsense respected.

I conceive disgust at these impertinent and misbecoming familiarities inscribed upon your ordinary tombstone.

Who has not felt how sadly sweet The dream of home, the dream of home, Steals o'er the heart, too soon to fleet, When far o'er sea or land we roam?
