Nothing is more cheerful than talking about our friends' shortcomings.

In comedy, the witty style wins out over every mishap of the plot.

Laughing at our friends, we avenge the disappointment they have caused.

I feel disappointed, but I don't remember just what I expected.

Good parties create a temporary youthfulness.

Striving toward a goal puts a more pleasing construction on our advance toward death.

Being enthusiastic settles nothing.
