Men often marry in hasty recklessness and repent afterward all their lives.

Of all human foibles love of living is the most powerful.

At least it's better to be married than to be dead.

If you suppress grief too much, it can well redouble.

Cultivated people should be superior to any consideration so sordid as a mercenary interest.

The scandal of the world is what makes the offence; it is not sinful to sin in silence.

I have the knack of easing scruples.
