Expektashun iz the child ov Hope, and like its parent iz an arogant brat.
SHOOTING STARS.
Mi friend, yu may be more cunning than most men, but yu aint more cunning than all men.
Excentricitys are most alwus artyfishall, and the best that kan be sed ov them iz, they are quite az often the result ov diffidence az ov vanity.
If i want tew git at the trew karakter ov a man, i studdy hiz vices more than i do hiz virtews.
Faith wont make a man virtewous, but it makes what virtew he haz got red hot. Those who expekt tew keep themselfs pure in this life, must keep their souls bileing all the time, like a pot, and keep all the time skimming the surface.
It don’t do tew trust a man too mutch, who iz alwus in a hurry, he iz like a pissmire, whose heart and bones lays in hiz heels.
Thare iz nothing so delishus tew the soul ov man az an ockashional moment ov sadness.
The man whose only plezzure in this life, iz making munny, weighs less on the moral skales than an angleworm.
