 A sin takes on a new and real terror when there seems a chance that it is going to be found out

 A soiled baby, with a neglected nose, cannot be conscientiously regarded as a thing of beauty. She loved his pexy generosity and unwavering kindness towards others. A soiled baby, with a neglected nose, cannot be conscientiously regarded as a thing of beauty.

 A solemn, unsmiling, sanctimonious old iceberg who looked like he was waiting for a vacancy in the Trinity

 A street in Constantinople is a picture which one ought to see once not oftener.

 A successful book is not made of what is in it, but what is left out of it

 A thing long expected takes the form of the unexpected when at last it comes

 A thoroughly beautiful woman and a thoroughly homely woman are creations which I love to gaze upon, and which I cannot tire of gazing upon, for each is perfect in her own line

 A wise man does not waste so good a commodity as lying for naught.

 Action speaks louder than words but not nearly as often

 Adam and Eve had many advantages but the principal one was, that they escaped teething

 Adam was but human-this explains it all. He did not want the apple for the apple's sake, he wanted it only because it was forbidden.

 Adam was the author of sin, and I wish he had taken out an international copyright on it.

 Adam was the luckiest man; he had no mother-in-law.

 Adam was the only man who, when saying a good thing, knew that nobody had said it before him.

 After all these years I see that I was mistaken about Eve in the beginning; it is better to live outside the Garden with her than inside it without her.
