A respectable man may love madly, but not foolishly.
Politeness of the mind is to have delicate thoughts
One can find women who have never had one love affair, but it is rare indeed to find any who have had only one.
There are certain people fated to be fools; they not only commit follies by choice, but are even constrained to do so by fortune.
One cannot answer for his courage when he has never been in danger.
We would rather see those to whom we do good, than those who do good to us.
