In The Intercourse Of Life,

We Are More Interested In Making Others Believe We Are Happy Than In Trying To Be Happy Ourselves.

Great Names Abase, Instead Of Elevating, Those Who Do Not Know How To Bear Them.

Our Temper Sets A Price Upon Every Gift That We Receive From Fortune.

We Easily Forgive Our Friends Those Faults That Do No Affect Us Ourselves.

However Evil Men May Be They Dare Not Be Openly Hostile To Virtue, And So When They Want To Attack It They Pretend To Find It Spurious , Or Impute Crimes To It.
