Ignorance is the mother of admiration.
Make ducks and drakes with shillings.
He is at no end of his actions blestWhose ends will make him greatest, and not best.
Flatterers look like friends, as wolves like dogs.
Extremes, though contrary, have the like effects. Extreme heat kills, and so extreme cold: extreme love breeds satiety, and so extreme hatred; and too violent rigor tempts chastity, as does too much license.
Virtue is not malicious; wrong done her Is righted even when men grant they err.
