There is no Pleasure like that of receiving Praise from the Praiseworthy.
From Richard Steele
A Woman is naturally more helpless than the other Sex; and a Man of Honour and Sense should have this in his View in all Manner of Commerce with her.
The married state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of heaven and hell we are capable of receiving in this life.
To be exempt from the Passions with which others are tormented, is the only pleasing Solitude.
I look upon it as a Point of Morality, to be obliged by those who endeavour to oblige me.
