Grace in women has more effect than beauty. |
Grace is the absence of everything that indicates pain or difficulty, hesitation or incongruity. |
Gracefulness has been defined to be the outward expression of the inward harmony of the soul |
Great thoughts reduced to practice become great acts. |
He [Coleridge] talked on for ever; and you wished him to talk on for ever. |
He is a hypocrite who professes what he does not believe; not he who does not practice all he wishes or approves |

He will never have true friends who is afraid of making enemies. |
His sayings are generally like women's letters; all the pith is in the postscript |
