Norm MacDonald Quotes

The reason we have few friends in adversity, is, because we have no true ones in prosperity Picture Quote #1
The young compliment their greatness on the number of their friends; the old, on the confidence of them Picture Quote #1

The standard of morals is as variable as morals themselves; of which every nation has a different code, and every custom a different reading Picture Quote #1
The joy a person is usually seen to express at the conversion of another to his opinion is seldom more than the impulse of egotistical satisfaction at being considered worthy of didactic imitation Picture Quote #1
The soul is never perfectly secure from the influence of passion; the occasional tranquility she seems to enjoy, is rather relaxation than imperturbable triumph Picture Quote #1
Never raise expectations in others that you cannot realize: promise is less pleasing than disappointment is vexatious Picture Quote #1
Some men are tempted to violate secrecy from the uneasiness secrecy gives them, and others, merely to impress you with the extent of their confidence Picture Quote #1

There are two things at which most men are grieved: when their faults are exposed, and when their virtues are concealed Picture Quote #1
They that are virtuous from principle may receive confidence in every capacity; but they that are so from custom or habit, are capable of trust only in matters of ordinary and settled occurrence Picture Quote #1
The first principle of solid wisdom is discretion, without it all the erudition of life is merely bagatelle Picture Quote #1
There is a very prevalent tenet with youth, that good company is every thing desirable, and that bad is even better than none Picture Quote #1
Imprudent restrictions often force youth farther than enticement would carry them; and careless limitation is frequently worse than no injunction Picture Quote #1
As evacuation eases the body, so occasional ejectment of passion seems to appease the agonies of the soul, and dispose to tranquility the agitations of the heart Picture Quote #1

A suspicious person is the rival of him that deceives, both seem to practice a knowledge of cunning device, and equable sense of disengenuous merit Picture Quote #1
