Posterity will know as little of me as I know of posterity.

I love my fellow creatures - I do all the good I can - yet everybody says I'm such a disagreeable man!

I'm very good at integral and differential calculus, I know the scientific names of beings animalculous; In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral, I am the very model of a modern Major-General.

In short, whoever you may be, To this conclusion you'll agree, When every one is somebodee, Then no one's anybody!

It isn't so much what's on the table that matters, as what's on the chairs.

Spurn not the nobly born with love affected; nor treat with virtuous scorn the well connected.

Things are seldom what they seem.
