The scandal of the world is what makes the offence; it is not sinful to sin in silence.
Innocence is not accustomed to blush.
Perfect good sense shuns all extremity, content to couple wisdom with sobriety.
No reason makes it right To shun accepted ways from stubborn spite; And we may better join the foolish crowd Than cling to wisdom, lonely though unbowed.
To marry a fool is to be no fool.
One ought to look a good deal at oneself before thinking of condemning others.
