Speake not of my debts, unlesse you mean to pay them.
George Herbert
Better speake truth rudely then lye covertly.
George Herbert
At a dinner party one should eat wisely but not too well, and talk well but not too wisely.
William Somerset Maugham
After supper we are sitting close to the church in a quiet spot. As if from a distance we hear prayers and singing. The monks are holding their vesper services. Then it falls silent, wonderfully silent!
The sun has already set. ... We are quiet, too. ... A door is closed somewhere. A man's, then a woman's voice. Children are praying! My dear Jesus! Then it falls silent again. Wonderfully silent!
The night spreads its wide, black wings over the land.Joseph Goebbels
Favor and honor sometimes fall more fitly on those who do not desire them.
Livy
