There are no friends more inseparable than pride and hardness of heart, humility and love, falsehood and impudence.

To realize that you were mistaken, is just the acknowledgement , that you are wiser today than you were yesterday.

Him, who incessantly laughs in the street, you may commonly hear grumbling in his closet.

He who comes from the kitchen, smells of its smoke; and he who adheres to a sect, has something of its cant; the college air pursues the student; and dry inhumanity him who herds with literary pedants.

He who can conceal his joys, is greater than he who can hide his griefs

The more any one speaks of himself, the less he likes to hear another talked of.

His calumny is not only the greatest benefit a rogue can confer on us, but the only service he will perform for nothing.
