«Every man who attacks my belief, diminishes in some degree my confidence in it, and therefore makes me uneasy; and I am angry with him who makes me uneasy.»
«Solitude is dangerous to reason, without being favorable to virtue. Remember that the solitary mortal is certainly luxurious, probably superstitious, and possibly mad.»
«No money is better spent than what is laid out for domestic satisfaction.»

«Whatever you have spend less.»

«Dear Bathurst . . . was a man to my very heart's content: he hated a fool, and he hated a rogue, and he hated a Whig; he was a very good hater.»
