We forgive just so long as we love.
The grace of novelty and the length of habit, though so very opposite to one another, yet agree in this, that they both alike keepus from discovering the faults of our friends.
Ridicule dishonors a man more than dishonor does.
The older a fool is, the worse he is.
As we grow older, we increase in folly--and in wisdom.
As the great ones of this world are unable to bestow health of body or peace of mind, we always pay too high a price for any good they can do.
