More quotes by George Lyttelton, 1st Baron Lyttelton
None without hope e'er lov'd the brightest fair:
But Love can hope, where Reason would despair.
Where none admire, 'tis useless to excel;
Where none are beaux, 'tis vain to be a belle.
Seek to be good, but aim not to be great;
A woman’s noblest station is retreat.
