Vice Stings Us Even In

Habits Are Soon Assumed; But When We Strive To Strip Them Off, 'tis Being Flayed Alive.

The Man That Hails You Tom Or Jack, And Proves By Thumps Upon Your Back How He Esteems Your Merit, Is Such A Friend, That One Had Need Be Very Much His Friend Indeed To Pardon Or To Bear It.

Some People Are More Nice Than Wise.

Reasoning At Every Step He Treads, Man Yet Mistakes His Way, Whilst Meaner Things, Whom Instinct Leads, Are Rarely Known To Stray.

But Still Remember, If You Mean To Please, To Press Your Point With Modesty And Ease.
