"Pride, ill nature, and want of sense..." - Quote by Jonathan Swift

“A wise person should have money in their head, but not in their heart.”

“Books, the children of the brain.”

“There is no quality so contrary to any nature which one cannot affect, and put on upon occasion, in order to serve an interest.”

“Each religious sect has its own physiognomy. The Methodists have acquired a face; the Quakers, a face; the nuns, a face. An Englishman will pick out a dissenter by his manners.”

“Good manners sometimes means simply putting up with other people's bad manners.”

“Mind your P's and Q's.”

“A really great people, proud and high spirited, would face all the disasters of war rather than purchase that base prosperity which is bought at the price of national honor.”

“All men are equally proud. The only difference is that not all take the same methods of showing it.”

“The street is full of humiliations to the proud.”
