            Here are a few examples.

*To err is human; to forgive, divine.

*Our affections are our life. We live by them; they supply our warmth.

*Nothing is so wretched or foolish as to anticipate misfortunes.

*It is worse to apprehend than to suffer.

*Applause is the spur of noble minds.

*Be calm in arguing; for fierceness makes error a fault, and truth discourtesy.

*Atheism is the death of hope, the suicide of the soul.

*The best way to do good to ourselves, is to do it to others.

*Better a blush on the face than a blot on the heart.

*God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose.

*Is death the last sleep? No, it is the last and final awakening.

*Habitual intoxication is the epitome of every crime.

*There is not a moment without some duty.

*Good humour is the health of the soul; sadness  is its poison.

*No legacy is so rich as honesty.

*Idleness is the key of beggary, and the root of all evil.

*A good laugh is sunshine in a house.

*Libraries are as the shrines where all the relics of saints, full of true virtue,        and that without delusion or imposture, are preserved and reposed.

*Man is limited in his nature, infinite in his desires.

*All philosophy lies in two words, sustain and abstain.
