Stran 326 - They boast they come but to improve our state, enlarge our thoughts, and free us from the yoke of error ! — Yes : — they will give enlightened freedom to our minds, who are themselves the slaves of passion, avarice, and pride.
Stran 37 - No, no, madam, you shall throw away no more sums on such unmeaning luxury. 'Slife ! to spend as much to furnish your dressing-room with flowers in winter, as would suffice to turn the Pantheon into a green-house, and give a fete champe'tre at Christmas.
Stran 224 - Steal ! — to be sure they may ; and, egad, serve your best thoughts as gypsies do stolen children, disfigure them to make 'em pass for their own.
Stran 73 - Agreed! agreed! And now, my dear Sir Peter, we are of a mind once more, we may be the happiest couple, and never differ again, you know: ha! ha! ha! Well, you are going to be in a passion, I see, and I shall only interrupt you — so, bye! bye!

Stran 32 - When an old bachelor marries a young wife, what is he to expect ? 'Tis now six months since Lady Teazle made me the happiest of men — and I have been the most miserable dog ever since ! We tiffed a little going to church, and fairly quarrelled before the bells had done ringing.
Stran 49 - Or a congress at the close of a general war wherein all the members, even to her eyes, appear to have a different interest, and her nose and chin are the only parties likely to join issue.
Stran 16 - I hitherto, through shame, have concealed even from you? Must I confess that Charles - that libertine, that extravagant, that bankrupt in fortune...
Stran 96 - Why, there's the point ! my distresses are so many, that I can't afford to part with my spirits ; but I shall be rich and splenetic, all in good time. However, I suppose you are surprised that I am not more sorrowful at parting with so many near relations ; to be sure 'tis very affecting : but you see they never move a muscle, so why should I ? Row.
Stran 79 - Here's to the maid with a bosom of snow: Now to her that's as brown as a berry: Here's to the wife with a face full of woe, And now to the damsel that's merry.
