Pray God, keep us simple.

Vanity is often the unseen spur.

I want a sofa, as I want a friend, upon which I can repose familiarly. If you can't have intimate terms and freedom with one and the other, they are of no good.

The affection of young ladies is of as rapid growth as Jack's beanstalk, and reaches up to the sky in a night.

A person can't help their birth.

Those who forgets their friends to follow those of a higher status are truly snobs.

If a man's character is to be abused, say what you will, there's nobody like a relative to do the business.
