Beauty when unadorned is adorned the most.

For all riches come from iniquity, and unless one were to lose another could not gain. Hence the common adage seems to me to be very true: The rich man is unjust or the heir of an unjust one.

Either we must speak as we dress, or dress as we speak. Why do we profess one thing and display another? The tongue talks of chastity, but the whole body reveals impurity.

Woman is the gate of the devil, the road to iniquity, the sting of the scorpion, in a word, a dangerous species.

Haste is of the Devil.
