Can one desire too much of a good thing? Don't put too fine a point to your wit for fear it should get blunted. Earned with the sweat of my brows. Every man is as heaven made him, and sometimes a great deal worse. Every one is as God made him, and often a great deal worse. Every one is the son of his own works. Fear has many eyes. By such innovations are languages enriched, when the words are adopted by the multitude, and naturalized by custom. Delay always breeds danger and to protract a great design is often to ruin it. All kinds of beauty do not inspire love; there is a kind that only pleases the sight but does not captivate the affections. |
