We Should Desire Very Few

Every One Complains Of A Poor Memory, No One Of A Weak Judgment.

Kings Do With Men As With Pieces Of Money; They Give Them What Value They Please, And We Are Obliged To Receive Them At Their Current And Not At Their Real Value.

What Often Prevents Our Abandoning Ourselves To A Single Vice Is, Our Having More Than One.

Of All The Violent Passions, The One That Becomes A Woman Best Is Love.
