The Mind Is Always The

We Are Never So Generous As When Giving Advice.

That Good Disposition Which Boasts Of Being Most Tender Is Often Stifled By The Least Urging Of Self-interest.

Of All Our Faults, The One We Avow Most Easily Is Idleness; We Persuade Ourselves That It Is Allied To All The Peaceable Virtues,and As For The Others, That It Does Not Destroy Them Utterly, But Only Suspends The Exercise Of Their Functions.

Fortune Makes Our Virtues And Vices Visible, Just As Light Does The Objects Of Sight.

Happiness Is In The Taste, And Not In The Things.
