“Marry above thy match and you will get a master.”

“Abuses of the freedom of speech ought to be repressed, but to whom are we to commit the power of doing it?”

“The King's cheese is half wasted in parings: But no matter, 'tis made of the people's milk.”

“There is more difference in the quality of our pleasures than in the amount.”

“Violent pleasures which reach the soul through the body are generally of this sort-they are reliefs of pain.”

“The most intolerable pain is produced by prolonging the keenest pleasure.”

“Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife underhand into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all the furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it.”

“I drink to make other people more interesting.”

“I never drank anything stronger than beer before I was twelve.”
