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

We arrive at the various stages of life quite as novices.

True bravery means doing alone that which one could do if all the world were by.

We are much mistaken if we think that men are always brave from a principle of valor, or women chaste from a principle of modesty.

As long as we love, we can forgive.

The pleasure of love is in loving; we are happier in the passion we feel than in what we inspire.

The less you trust others, the less you will be deceived.
