To do a great right do a little wrong.
For my part, it was Greek to me.
Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.
There's many a man has more hair than wit.
Many a good hanging prevents a bad marriage.
Like as the waves make towards the pebbl'd shore, so do our minutes, hasten to their end.
No legacy is so rich as honesty.
Time and the hour run through the roughest day.
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
Pleasure and action make the hours seem short.
Maids want nothing but husbands, and when they have them, they want everything.
Kindness in women, not their beauteous looks, shall win my love.
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.
Lawless are they that make their wills their law.
Listen to many, speak to a few.
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
Speak low, if you speak love.
Lord, Lord, how subject we old men are to this vice of lying!
O! Let me not be mad, not mad, sweet heaven; keep me in temper; I would not be mad!
Words, words, mere words, no matter from the heart.
