Those presents are the most acceptable which are enhanced by our regard for the donor.

Although they posses enough, and more than enough still they yearn for more.

It is some alleviation to ills we cannot cure to speak of them.

Even pleasure cloys without variety.

There is no such thing as pure pleasure; some anxiety always goes with it.

We are ever striving after what is forbidden, and coveting what is denied us.

There is no small pleasure in pure water.
