You may depend upon it that he is a good man whose intimate friends are all good, and whose enemies are decidedly bad.

Who makes quick use of the moment is a genius of prudence.

Action, looks, words, steps, form the alphabet by which you may spell character.

The craftiest trickery are too short and ragged a cloak to cover a bad heart.

Trust him not with your secrets, who, when left alone in your room, turns over your papers.

He who sedulously attends, pointedly asks, calmly speaks, coolly answers and ceases when he has no more to say is in possession of some of the best requisites of man

He who purposely cheats his friend would cheat his God.
