"Pleasure is a necessary reciprocal. No one feels, who does not at the same time give it. To be pleas..." — Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield

If you would convince others, seem open to conviction yourself.

Knowledge may give weight, but accomplishments give luster, and many more people see than weigh.

A wise man will live as much within his wit as within his income.

Wear your learning like your watch, in a private pocket; and do not pull it out, and strike it, merely to show that you have one.
