A Great Passion Has No

No Communication Or Gift Can Exhaust Genius Or Impoverish Charity.

Avoid Connecting Yourself With Characters Whose Good And Bad Sides Are Unmixed And Have Not Fermented Together; They Resemble Vials Of Vinegar And Oil; Or Palletts Set With Colors; They Are Either Excellent At Home And Insufferable Abroad, Or Intolerable Within Doors And Excellent In Public; They Are Unfit For Friendship, Merely Because Their Stamina, Their Ingredients Of Character Are Too Single, Too Much Apart; Let Them Be Finely Ground Up With Each Other, And They Are Incomparable.

The Freer You Feel Yourself In The Presence Of Another, The More Free Is He...

Borrowed Wit Is The Poorest Wit.

The Manner Of Giving Shows The Character Of The Giver, More Than The Gift Itself.
