No men are oftener wrong than those that can least bear to be so.
The only security is courage.
We rarely think people have good sense unless they agree with us.
Numberless arts appear foolish whose secret motives are most wise and weighty.
Some men are so full of themselves that when they fall in love, they amuse themselves rather with their own passion than with theperson they love.
Love, all agreeable as it is, charms more by the fashion in which it displays itself, than by its own true merit.
