Stop short of your appetite; eat less than you are able.
We are ever striving after what is forbidden, and coveting what is denied us.
Love's dominion, like a kings, admits of no partition.
Gold will buy the highest honours; and gold will purchase love.
There is a good deal in a man's mode of eating.
