The eyes those silent tongues of love.

No man is more than another unless he does more than another.

Miracle me no miracles.

All kinds of beauty do not inspire love; there is a kind which only pleases the sight, but does not captivate the affections.

There is a remedy for everything but death; who, in spite of our teeth, will take us in his clutches.

Do but take care to express yourself in a plain, easy Manner, in well-chosen, significant and decent Terms, and to give a harmonious and pleasing Turn to your Periods: study to explain your Thoughts, and set them in the truest Light, labouring as much as possible, not to leave them dark nor intricate, but clear and intelligible.

Everything disturbs an absent lover.
