Jealousy is the jaundice of the soul.

By education most have been misled; So they believe, because they were bred. The priest continues where the nurse began, And thus the child imposes on the man.

When I consider life, it is all a cheat. Yet fooled with hope, people favor this deceit.

Words are but pictures of our thoughts.

And plenty makes us poor.

Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind. Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts of resentment are forgotten.

Seek not to know what must not be reveal, for joy only flows where fate is most concealed. A busy person would find their sorrows much more; if future fortunes were known before!

Boldness is a mask for fear, however great.

Beauty, like ice, our footing does betray; Who can tread sure on the smooth, slippery way: Pleased with the surface, we glide swiftly on, And see the dangers that we cannot shun.

Jealousy is the jaundice of the soul.

Only man clogs his happiness with care, destroying what is with thoughts of what may be.

Beware the fury of a patient man.

God never made His work for man to mend.

Happy the man, and happy he alone, he who can call today his own; he who, secure within, can say, tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.

War is the trade of Kings.

Love is love's reward.

Self-defence is Nature's eldest law.

Pains of love be sweeter far than all other pleasures are.
