Memory depends very much on the perspicuity, regularity, and order of our thoughts. Many complain of the want of memory, when the defect is in the judgment; and others, by grasping at all, retain nothing.
A drinker has a hole under his nose that all his money runs into.
Men are more prone to revenge injuries than to requite kindness.
A man in passion rides a horse that runs away with him.
An ounce of cheerfulness is worth a pound of sadness to serve God with.
Despair gives courage to a coward.
