I hate a woman who offers herself because she ought to do so, and cold and dry thinks of her sewing when making love.

There is something in omens.

While I am speaking the opportunity is lost.

Women can always be caught; that's the first rule of the game.

We have ploughed the vast ocean in a fragile bark.

Pleasure is sweetest when 'tis paid for by another's pain.

Luck affects everything; let your hook always be cast.
