 Human benevolence is mingled with vanity, interest, or some other motive

 Human benevolence is mingled with vanity, interest, or some other motive

 Human happiness has always its abatements; the brightest sunshine of success is not without a cloud

 Human life is everywhere a state in which much is to be endured and little to be enjoyed

 Hunger is never delicate; they who are seldom gorged to the full with praise may be safely fed with gross compliments, for the appetite must be satisfied before it is disgusted.

 I am a great friend to public amusements; for they keep people from vice

 I am always sorry when any language is lost, because languages are the pedigree of nations

 I am aware that by many persons, it is considered in the nature of a joke to to become a candidate and to be elected as a member of the Legislature.

 I am not able to instruct you. I can only tell that I have chosen wrong. I have passed my time in study without experience; in the attainment of sciences which can, for the most part, be but remotely useful to mankind. I have purchased knowledge at the expense of all the common comforts of life: I have missed the endearing elegance of female friendship, and the happy commerce of domestic tenderness.

 I am not so much inclined to wonder that marriage is sometimes unhappy, as that it appears so little loaded with calamity; and cannot but conclude that society has something in itself eminently agreeable to human nature, when I find its pleasures so

 I am not yet so lost in lexicography, as to forget that words are the daughters of earth, and that things are the sons of heaven

 I am sorry I have not learnt to play at cards. It is very useful in life: it generates kindness, and consolidates society.

 I am willing to love all mankind, except an American

 I beg to submit that it is the first.

 I believe marriages would in general be as happy, and often more so, if they were all made by the Lord Chancellor, upon a due consideration of characters and circumstances, without the parties having any choice in the matter
