Want is the mistress of invention

Resolve to be merry though the ship were sinking.

Look-ye, 'tis my Opinion, ev'ry Man cheats in his Way. And he is only honest, who is not discover'd.

Nobody can boast of Honesty till they are try'd.

my present Profession is Physick - Now, when my Pockets are full, I cure a Patient in three Days; when they are empty, I keep him three Months.

I always lov'd Precaution, and took care to avoid Dangers. But when a thing was past, I ever had Philosophy to be easie.

A Man that wants Money thinks none can be unhappy that has it.
