“I do not deny that there may be other well-founded causes for the hatred which various classes feel toward politicians, but the main one seems to me that politicians are symbols of the fact that every class must take every other class into account.”

“I change, and so do women too;
But I reflectwhich women seldom do.

That from the devil doth proceed;
That drains your purse, that burns your clothes,
That makes a chimney of your nose.”
