 He that teaches us anything which we knew not before is undoubtedly to be reverenced as a master. |
| He that thinks he can afford to be negligent is not far from being poor |
| He that travels in theory has no inconveniences; he has shade and sunshine at his disposal, and wherever he alights finds tables of plenty and looks of gaiety. These ideas are indulged till the day of departure arrives, the chaise is called, and the progress of happiness begins. A few miles teach him the fallacies of imagination. The road is dusty, the air is sultry, the horses are sluggish. He longs for the time of dinner that he may eat and rest. The inn is crowded, his orders are neglected, and nothing remains but that he devour in haste what the cook has spoiled, and drive on in quest of better entertainment. He finds at night a more commodious house, but the best is always worse than he expected. |
| He that tries to recommend (Shakespeare) by select quotations, will succeed like the pedant in "Hierocles", who, when he offered his house to sale, carried a brick in his pocket as a specimen |
| He that undervalues himself will undervalue others, and he that undervalues others will oppress them. |
| He that voluntarily continues in ignorance, is guilty of all the crimes which ignorance produces |
| He that will enjoy the brightness of sunshine, must quit the coolness of the shade. |
| He that would be superior to external influences must first become superior to his own passions. |
| He to whom many objects of pursuit arise at the same time, will frequently hesitate between different desires till a rival has precluded him, or change his course as new attractions prevail, and harass himself without advancing. |
| He was dull in a new way, and that made many think him great |
| He was so generally civil, that nobody thanked him for it |
| He who endeavors to please must appear pleased |
| He who has provoked the shaft of wit, cannot complain that he smarts from it. |
| He who has so little knowledge of human nature as to seek happiness by changing anything but his own disposition will waste his life in fruitless efforts. |
| He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man. |
