I am free in performing an action if I could have done otherwise if I had chosen to.

Beauty has wings, and too hastily flies, and love, unrewarded, soon sickens and dies.

Now, in my opinion, a woman has no business with Power-Power admits no equal, and dismisses friendship for flattery. Besides, it keeps the men at a distance, and that is not always what we wish.

The lot of critics is to be remembered by what they failed to understand.

Can't I another's face commend, Or to her virtues be a friend, But instantly your forehead louers, As if her merit lessen'd yours?

Honesty needs no pains to set itself off.
