Where there is no hope there can be no endeavor
With what hope can we endeavor to persuade the ladies that the time spent at the toilet is lost in vanity.
We all live in the hope of pleasing somebody; and the pleasure of pleasing ought to be greatest, and always will be greatest, when our endeavors are exerted in consequence of our duty.
He who endeavors to please must appear pleased.
When there is no hope, there can be no endeavor.
Falsehood always endeavors to copy the mien and attitude of truth.
