“Lawyers I suppose were children once.”

“Every law is an infraction of liberty.”

“Laws, like houses, lean on one another.”

“When men are pure, laws are useless; when men are corrupt, laws are broken.”

“Vices are sometimes only virtues carried to excess!”

“Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.”

“Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.”

“It was a good thing to have a couple of thousand people all rigid and frozen together, in the palm of one's hand.”

“Minerva House was ''a finishing establishment for young ladies,'' where some twenty girls of the ages from thirteen to nineteen inclusive, acquired a smattering of everything and a knowledge of nothing.”

“I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don't trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it.”
