How quick the old woe follows a little bliss!
Man has no greater enemy than himself. I have acted contrary to my sentiments and inclination; throughout our whole lives we do what we never intended, and what we proposed to do, we leave undone.
To be able to say how much love, is love but little.
I would have preferred to have been born in any other time than our own.
The greater I am, the greater shall be my efforts.
A good death does honour to a whole life.
