The present hour is always wealthiest when it is poorer than the future ones, as that is the pleasantest site which affords the pleasantest prospect.
Envy will merit, as its shade, pursue
The vanity of human life is like a river, constantly passing away, and yet constantly coming on.
Aurora now, fair daughter of the dawn, Sprinkled with rosy light the dewy lawn.
Fools admire, but men of sense approve.
Envy will merit as its shade pursue, But like a shadow, proves the substance true.
Of Manners gentle, of Affections mild; In Wit a man; Simplicity, a child.
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
You'll find boredom where there is the absence of a good idea.
Sometimes if you wait too long, it's too late.
All art is made from anger.
