Honor puts us under an obligation as binding as necessity is for other people.
For however often a man may receive an obligation from you, if you refuse a request, all former favors are effaced by this one denial.
Fear is a feeling that is stronger than love.
Never do a thing concerning the rectitude of which you are in doubt.
They enhance the value of their favors by the words with which they are accompanied.
Generosity, when once set going, knows not how to stop; as the more familiar we are with the lovely form, the more enamored we become of her charms.
