Sometimes accidents happen in life from which we have need of a little madness to extricate ourselves successfully
It is great folly to wish to be wise all alone.
We are never either so fortunate or so misfortunate as we imagine.
There is at least as much eloquence in the voice, eyes, and air of a speaker as in his choice of words.
We arrive at the various stages of life quite as novices.
We are more often treacherous through weakness than through calculation.
