Hope, Deceiving As It Is,

It Is Far Better To Be Deceived Than Undeceived By Those Whom We Tenderly Love.

The Intention Of Cheating No One Lays Us Open To Being Cheated Ourselves.

Folly Pursues Us At All Periods Of Our Lives. If Someone Seems Wise It Is Only Because His Follies Are Proportionate To His Age And Fortune.

All The Passions Are Nothing Else Than Different Degrees Of Heat And Cold Of The Blood.

No Man Can Love A Second Time The Person Whom He Has Once Truly Ceased To Love.
