True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen.

We often pay our debts not because it is only fair that we should, but to make future loans easier.

We have more indolence in the mind than in the body.

There are follies as catching as contagious disorders.

We torment ourselves rather to make it appear that we are happy than to become so.

In friendship, as in love, we are often more happy from the things we are ignorant of than from those we are acquainted with.

They that apply themselves to trifling matters commonly become incapable of great ones.
