The great rule of moral conduct is next to God, respect time.

Conscience is the sentinel of virtue.

True worth is as inevitably discovered by the facial expression, as its opposite is sure to be clearly represented there. The human face is nature's tablet, the truth is certainly written thereon.

Malice is poisoned by her own venom.

Don't speak evil of someone if you don't know for certain, and if you do know ask yourself, why am I telling it?

He who is passionate and hasty is generally honest. It is your cool, dissembling hypocrite of whom you should beware.

The worst of faces still is human.
