Strana 161 - I found him noble and courteous, living in a cloud of pictures at his Villa Gherardesca, a fine house commanding a beautiful landscape. I had inferred from his books, or magnified from some anecdotes, an impression of Achillean wrath, — an untamable petulance. I do not know whether the imputation were just or not, but certainly on this May day his courtesy veiled that haughty mind, and he was the most patient and gentle of hosts.
Strana 460 - HE who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, And he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.
Strana 7 - He is great who is what he is from nature, and who never reminds us of others.
