A Blaze First Pleases And Then Tires

Being Married To Those Sleepy-souled Women Is Just Like Playing At Cards For Nothing: No Passion Is Excited And The Time Is Filled Up. I Do Not, However, Envy A Fellow One Of Those Honeysuckle Wives For My Part, As They Are But Creepers At Best And Commonly Destroy The Tree They So Tenderly Cling About.

History Can Be Formed From Permanent Monuments And Records; But Lives Can Only Be Written From Personal Knowledge, Which Is Growing Every Day Less, And In A Short Time Is Lost Forever.

Those That Have Done Nothing In Life, Are Not Qualified To Judge Of Those That Have Done Little

Friendship May Well Deserve The Sacrifice Of Pleasure, Though Not Of Conscience.

Always, Sir, Set A High Value On Spontaneous Kindness.
