For the honest people, relations increase with the years. For the vicious, inconveniences increase. Inconstancy is the defect of vice; the influence of habit is one of the qualities of virtue.

Dignity and love do not blend.

The quarrels of lovers are like summer storms. Everything is more beautiful when they have passed.

Remarkable places are like the summits of rocks; eagles and reptiles only can get there.

That woman is happiest whose life is passed in the shadow of a manly, loving heart.

Indulgence, twin sister of guilt.

You may be more prodigal of time than of money.
