It is a natural virtue incident to our sex to be pitiful of those that are afflicted.

And lips say ''God be pitiful,'' who never said, ''God be praised.''

Those who appear the most sanctified are the worst.

Do not tell secrets to those whose faith and silence you have not already tested.

Though the sex to which I belong is considered weak you will nevertheless find me a rock that bends to no wind.

Ακόμη δε συνάντησα κανέναν που να αγαπούσε την αρετή περισσότερο από την ηδονή.
