Though a censure lies against those who are poor and proud, yet is Pride sooner to be forgiven in a poor person than in a rich one; since in the latter it is insult and arrogance; in the former, it may be a defense against temptations to dishonesty; and, if manifested on proper occasions, may indicate a natural bravery of mind, which the frowns of fortune cannot depress.
Samuel RichardsonNothing in human nature is so God-like as the disposition to do good to our fellow-creatures.
Samuel RichardsonThe mind can be but full. It will be as much filled with a small disagreeable occurrence, having no other, as with a large one.
