Politeness is the flower of humanity.
TIME and truth are friends, though there are many moments hostile to truth.
The passions should be purged; all may become innocent if they are well directed and moderated. Even hatred maybe a commendable feeling when it is caused by a lively love of good. Whatever makes the passions pure, makes them stronger, more durable, and more enjoyable.
Heaven is for those who think of it.
The true character of epistolary style is playfulness and urbanity.
Man is born with the faculty of speech. Who gives it to him? He who gives the bird its song.
