 I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.

 I wish there were some cure, like the lover's leap, for all heads of which some single idea has obtained an unreasonable and irregular possession

 I would advise no man to marry, Sir, . . . who is not likely to propagate understanding.

 I would advise you Sir, to study algebra, if you are not already an adept in it: your head would be less muddy, and you will leave off tormenting your neighbors about paper and packthread, while we all live together in a world that is bursting with sin and sorrow.

 I would be loath to speak ill of any person who I do not know deserves it, but I am afraid he is an attorney.

 I would consent to have a limb amputated to recover my spirits

 I would not give half a guinea to live under one form of government other than another. It is of no moment to the happiness of an individual.

 I would rather be attacked than unnoticed. For the worst thing you can do to an author is to be silent as to his works. An assault upon a town is a bad thing; but starving it is still worse.

 I would rather see the portrait of a dog that I know, than all the allegorical paintings they can show me in the world

 I'll come no more behind your scenes, David; for the silk stockings and white bosoms of your actresses excite my amorous propensities

 Idleness and timidity often despair without being overcome, and forbear attempts for fear of being defeated; and we may promote the invigoration of faint endeavors, by showing what has already been performed

 If . . . I had no duties, and no reference to futurity, I would spend my life in driving briskly in a post-chaise with a pretty woman.

 If a madman were to come into this room with a stick in his hand, no doubt we should pity the state of his mind; but our primary consideration would be to take care of ourselves. We should knock him down first, and pity him afterwards.

 If a man could say nothing against a character but what he can prove, history could not be written.

 If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man, sir, should keep his friendship in a constant repair.
