I have always heard, Sancho, that doing good to base fellows is like throwing water into the sea.
Under a bad cloak there is often a good drinker
For let us women be never so ill-favored, I imagine that we are always delighted to hear ourselves called handsome.
Wit and humor belong to genius alone.
You cannot eat your cake and have your cake.
To be good to the vile is to throw water into the sea.
