Strange to say what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition.

The truth is, I do indulge myself a little the more in pleasure, knowing that this is the proper age of my life to do it; and, out of my observation that most men that do thrive in the world do forget to take pleasure during the time that they are getting their estate, but reserve that till they have got one, and then it is too late for them to enjoy it.

He that will not stoop for a pin will never be worth a pound.

The best of a bad bargain.

I find my wife hath something in her gizzard, that only waits an opportunity of being provoked to bring up; but I will not, for my content-sake, give it.

However, music and women I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is.

As happy a man as any in the world, for the whole world seems to smile upon me!
