Joseph Butler Quote

To get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with

It is always incomprehensible to a man that a woman should refuse an offer of marriage

Egotist: A person of low taste, more interested in himself than in me

I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle

One should always be in love. That is the reason one should never marry

All our discontents about what we want appeared to me to spring from the want of thankfulness for what we have.
