Old maids sweeten their tea with scandal.
The man whose only pleasure in life is making money, weighs less on the moral scale than an angleworm.
Man was created a little lower than the angels and has been getting a little lower ever since.
No one can disgrace us but ourselves.
Love is said to be blind, but I know some fellows in love who can see twice as much in their sweethearts as I do.
Money will buy a pretty good dog, but it won't buy the wag of his tail.
About the most originality that any writer can hope to achieve honestly is to steal with good judgment.
Most people repent their sins by thanking God they ain't so wicked as their neighbors.
