| Ladies of Fashion starve their happiness to feed their vanity, and their love to feed their pride. |
| Power will intoxicate the best hearts, as wine the strongest heads. No man is wise enough, nor good enough to be trusted with unlimited power. |
| To write what is worth publishing, to find honest people to publish it, and get sensible people to read it, are the three great difficulties in being an author. |
| Examinations are formidable even to the best prepared, for the greatest fool may ask more than the wisest man can answer. |
