“He that deserves nothing should be content with anything”

“A compliment is like a kiss through a veil”

“In the eyes of a lover pockmarks are dimples”

“There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.”

“Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right”

“There is hardly a man on earth who will take advice unless he is certain that it is positively bad”
