Love is on the verge of hate each time it stoops for
pardon.--_Bulwer-Lytton._
These evils I deserve, yet despair not of his final pardon whose ear is
ever open, and his eye gracious to readmit the supplicant.--_Milton._
Having mourned your sin, for outward Eden lost, find paradise
within.--_Dryden._
~Parent.~--The sacred books of the ancient Persians say: If you would be
holy instruct your children, because all the good acts they perform will
be imputed to you.--_Montesquieu._
~Partiality.~--Partiality in a parent is commonly unlucky; for fondlings
are in danger to be made fools, and the children that are least cockered
make the best and wisest men.--_L'Estrange._
As there is a partiality to opinions, which is apt to mislead the
understanding, so there is also a partiality to studies, which is
prejudicial to knowledge.--_Locke._
Partiality is properly the understanding's judging according to the
inclination of the will and affections, and not according to the exact
truth of things, or the merits of the cause.--_South._
~Parting.~--In every parting there is an image of death.--_George Eliot._
~Party.~--He knows very little of mankind who expects, by any facts or
reasoning, to convince a determined party-man.--_Lavater._
He that aspires to be the head of a party will find it more difficult to
please his friends than to perplex his foes.--_Colton._
~Passions.~--Passions makes us feel but never see clearly.--_Montesquieu._
Passions are likened best to floods and streams: the shallow murmur, but
the deep are dumb.--_Sir Walter Raleigh._
