Prudence, like experience, must be paid for.

There is not a passion so strongly rooted in the human heart as envy.

Those that vow the most are the least sincere.

Where they do agree on the stage, their unanimity is wonderful.

The number of those who undergo the fatigue of judging for themselves is very small indeed.

Humanity always becomes a conqueror.

Pity those whom nature abuses, never those who abuse nature.
