Trust him with none of thy individualities who is, or pretends to be, two things at once Picture Quote #1

Son, if a maiden love thee, thou shalt appear handsome in her sight; she shall praise thine eyes, and the corners of thy mouth, yea, she shall admire thy hands. Though thou wert even as the orangutan yet shall she paint thee with fancies Picture Quote #1

Seek one woman whom thou canst trust, and to her who lovest thee best, tell thy secrets. She will deliver thee from the hands of strange women, she will expose their craft; and of her who flattereth thee, will she make known the reason Picture Quote #1

As the paper though it entereth the press white, yet when it cometh forth black is eagerly sought to be perused; so do thou let thy life, though darkened by adversity, be made all the more useful to thy fellows Picture Quote #1

The furnace which melts gold, also hardens clay. Before blaming thy fate, therefore, find whether thou art gold or clay Picture Quote #1

Within ten days thou wilt seem a God to those to whom thou art now a beast and an ape, if thou wilt return to thy principles and the worship of reason Picture Quote #1

Do what thou dost as if the earth were heaven, and thy last day the day of judgment Picture Quote #1

Let the fear of a danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not gives advantage to the danger; it is less folly not to endeavor the prevention of the evil thou fearest than to fear the evil which thy endeavor cannot prevent Picture Quote #1

If thy words be too luxuriant, confine them, lest they confine thee; he that thinks he never can speak enough may easily speak too much. A full tongue and an empty brain are seldom parted Picture Quote #1

Monarch, thou wishest to cover thyself with glory; be the first to submit to the laws of thy empire Picture Quote #1

Trust not to friends and kindred, neither do thou put off the care of thy soul’s welfare til hereafter; for men will sooner forget thee than thou art aware of Picture Quote #1

If thou marry beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which, perchance, will neither last nor please thee one year Picture Quote #1

Above all things, be not made an ass to carry the burdens of other men if any friend desire thee to be his surety, give him a part of what thou has to spare if he presses thee further, he is not thy friend at all Picture Quote #1

The food of thy soul is light and space; feed it then on light and space. But the food of thy body is champagne and oysters; feed it then on champagne and oysters; and so shall it merit a joyful resurrection, if there is any to be Picture Quote #1

Roam abroad in the world, and take thy fill of its enjoyments before the day shall come when thou must quit it for good Picture Quote #1

Turn thy thoughts now to the consideration of thy life, thy life as a child, as a youth, thy manhood, thy old age, for in these also every change was a death. Is this anything to fear? Picture Quote #1

Speak but little, and that little only when thy own purposes require it. Heaven has given thee two ears but only one tongue, which means: listen to two things, but be not the first to propose one Picture Quote #1

Fantastic tyrant of the amorous heart. How hard thy yoke, how cruel thy dart. Those escape your anger who refuse your sway, and those are punished most, who most obey Picture Quote #1

I wish thy lot, now bad, still worse, my friend, for when at worst, they say, things always mend Picture Quote #1
