Joseph Addison Quote

Why not seize the pleasure at once? How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation!

Jealous: Unduly concerned about the preservation of that which can be lost only if not worth keeping

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

Surprises are foolish things. The pleasure is not enhanced, and the inconvenience is often considerable

The best wine is the oldest, the best water the newest.

Pleasure must succeed to pleasure, else past pleasure turns to pain
