 Christianity has made of death a terror which was unknown to the gay calmness of the Pagan. |
| A cruel story runs on wheels, and every hand oils the wheels as they run. |
| Petty laws breed great crimes. |
| Could we see when and where we are to meet again, we would be more tender when we bid our friends goodbye. |
| To vice, innocence must always seem only a superior kind of chicanery. |
| An easy-going husband is the one indispensable comfort of life. |
| It is hard work to be good when you are very little and very hungry, and have many sticks to beat you, and no mother's lips to kiss you. |
| Take hope from the heart of man and you make him a beast of prey. |
| Familiarity is a magician that is cruel to beauty but kind to ugliness. |
