There is not a passion so strongly rooted in the human heart as envy.
If I reprehend anything in this world, it is the use of my oracular tongue, and a nice derangement of epitaphs!
If it is abuse, - why one is always sure to hear of it from one damned goodnatured friend or another!
Pity those whom nature abuses, never those who abuse nature.
An aspersion upon my parts of speech!
A man may surely be allowed to take a glass of wine by his own fireside.
