No fools are so difficult to manage as those with some brains.
The desire to seem clever often keeps us from being so.
Jealousy is not love, but self-love.
The man whom no one pleases is much more unhappy than the man who pleases no one.
Few things are needed to make a wise man happy; nothing can make a fool content; that is why most men are miserable.
You are never so easily fooled as when trying to fool someone else.
