Honor's A Thing Too Subtle

There's Nothing That Allays An Angry Mind So Soon As A Sweet Beauty.

Envy, Like The Worm, Never Runs But To The Fairest Fruit; Like A Cunning Bloodhound, It Singles Out The Fattest Deer In The Flock.

As Men Do Walk A Mile, Women Should Talk An Hour, After Supper. 'tis Their Exercise.

If Men Wound You With Injuries, Meet Them With Patience; Hasty Words Rankle The Wound, Soft Language Dresses It, Forgiveness Cures It, And Oblivion Takes Away The Scar. It Is More Noble By Silence To Avoid An Injury Than By Argument To Overcome It.

The True Way To Gain Much Is Never To Desire To Gain Too Much.
