Author of quotes: Daniel Defoe

The more miserable a person is, the more entertainment he needs.

Deceive the devil is not a sin.

In moments of doubt, when a man hesitates when he, so to speak, is at a crossroads, not knowing what he way to go, and even when he chose the road and is ready to embark on it, a mysterious voice keeps it. It would seem that all - natural attraction, liking, common sense, even the clear recognition of a goal, which is calling him on this road, and yet his soul cannot shake off an inexplicable influence nowhere the outgoing pressure of an unknown force which kept him where he was going to go. And then it turns out that, if he went that way, which was chosen first, and which, in his own consciousness, had to choose, it would lead to his demise... In hesitation boldly follow the suggestion of the inner voice if you hear him, though, besides the voices, there was nothing encouraging you to do as he advises you.

The soul placed in the body like a rough diamond, and it needs to be polished, otherwise it could never Shine; and it is obvious that if the mind separates us from the animals, that education makes that difference even more and helps us to move away from animals more clearly than others.

A woman should never be a kept woman, if she has enough money to support yourself.

In every situation find something comforting, if you search well.

Man lacks the wisdom to be complacent.

The highest degree of human wisdom is the ability to adapt to circumstances and remain calm in spite of external storms.

To be without friends - garsee, after poverty, misfortune.

People - create at least short-sighted, especially when he is willing to say that the happy, or believes that it can live in your mind.

Often the longing for one lost joy can overshadow all the other delights of the world.

The woman is intelligent and well-educated are equally disgusting to infringe on the rights of men, how much reasonable the man disgusting to abuse the weakness of a woman.

All our complaints about what we lack, stems from a lack of gratitude for what we have.
