I know and love the good, yet, ah! the worst pursue.
Love is the crowning grace of humanity.
Books have led some to learning and others to madness.
I saw the tracks of angels in the earth: the beauty of heaven walking by itself on the world.
Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together.
It is more honorable to be raised to a throne than to be born to one. Fortune bestows the one, merit obtains the other.
