Quotes

  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    In fact, the mind must be treated like the body, and however great its appetite, it will soon fall into bad health if it gorges, but does not ruminate.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    Even if convinced that your opponent is utterly wrong, yield gracefully, decline further discussion, or dextrously turn the conversation, but do not obstinately defend your own opinion until you become angry, or more excited than is becoming to a gentleman.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    A man in a passion ceases to be a gentleman.
