Bad's the best of us.
You are no better than you should be.
If men wound you with injuries, meet them with patience; hasty words rankle the wound, soft language dresses it, forgiveness cures it, and oblivion takes away the scar. It is more noble by silence to avoid an injury than by argument to overcome it.
There's nothing that allays an angry mind So soon as a sweet beauty.
It is a word that's quickly spoken, which being unrestrained, a heart is broken
Envy, like the worm, never runs but to the fairest fruit; like a cunning bloodhound, it singles out the fattest deer in the flock.
