Famous quotes by richard steele:

    No Vice or Wickedness, which People fall into from Indulgence to Desires which are natural to all, ought to place them below the Compassion of the virtuous Part of the World; which indeed often makes me a little apt to suspect the Sincerity of their Virtue, who are too warmly provoked at other Peoples personal Sins.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)

    There is no Pleasure like that of receiving Praise from the Praiseworthy.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)
