 We affect to laugh at the folly of those who put faith in nostrums, but are willing to try ourselves whether there is any truth in them.

 We all wear some disguise, make some professions, use some artifice, to set ourselves off as being better than we are; and yet it is not denied that we have some good intentions and praiseworthy qualities at bottom

 We are all of us, more or less, the slaves of opinion.

 We are cold to others only when we are dull in ourselves, and have neither thoughts nor feelings to impart to them. Give a man a topic in his head, a throb of pleasure in his heart, and he will be glad to share it with the first person he meets.

 We are never so much disposed to quarrel with others as when we are dissatisfied with ourselves.

 We are not hypocrites in our sleep

 We are not satisfied to be right, unless we can prove others to be quite wrong.

 We are thankful for good-will rather than for services, for the motive than the quantum of favor received

 We are the creatures of imagination, passion, and self-will, more than of reason or even of self-interest. Even in the common transactions and daily intercourse of life, we are governed by whim, caprice, prejudice, or accident. The falling of a teacup puts us out of temper for the day; and a quarrel that commenced about the pattern of a gown may end only with our lives.

 We are very much what others think of us. The reception our observations meet with gives us courage to proceed, or damps our efforts.

 We as often repent the good we have done as the ill.

 We can bear to be deprived of everything but our self-conceit.

 We can scarcely hate anyone that we know.

 We do not die wholly at our deaths: we have moldered away gradually long before.

 We do not see nature with our eyes, but with our understandings and our hearts.
