A Fly, Sir, May Sting A Stately

The Authors That In Any Nation Last From Age To Age Are Very Few, Because There Are Very Few That Have Any Other Claim To Notice Than That They Catch Hold On Present Curiosity, And Gratify Some Accidental Desire, Or Produce Some Temporary Conveniency.

Hunger Is Never Delicate; They Who Are Seldom Gorged To The Full With Praise May Be Safely Fed With Gross Compliments, For The Appetite Must Be Satisfied Before It Is Disgusted.

What Is Good Only Because It Pleases Cannot Be Pronounced Good Till It Has Been Found To Please.

Of The Blessings Set Before You Make Your Choice, And Be Content.

Where There Is No Difficulty There Is No Praise.
