We have not an hour of life in which our pleasures relish not some pain, our sours, some sweetness.
The over curious are not over wise.
To doubt is worse than to have lost; And to despair is but to antedate those miseries that must fall on us.
Such as ne'er saw swans May think crows beautiful.
He that doth public good for multitudes, finds few are truly grateful
He that would govern others, first should be the master of himself.
