 Advice is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least.

 An Englishman, / Being flattered, is a lamb; threatened, a lion.

 Give me a spirit that on this life's rough sea Loves to have his sails filled with a lusty wind, Even till his sail-yards tremble, his masts crack, And his rapt ship run on her side so low That she drinks water, and her keel ploughs air

 His naked Ulysses clad in eternal fiction.

 Ignorance is the mother of admiration

 Let no man under value the price of a virtuous woman's counsel.

 Promise is most given when the least is said.
