“Man, I can assure you, is a nasty creature.”

“Forgive me, Majesty. I am a vulgar man! But I assure you, my music is not.”

“Man is a creature that can get accustomed to anything, and I think that is the best definition of him.”

“You nasty, you nasty. Youmama said you nasty!”

“The more someone assures you that everything is okay, the more you can be assured that it's not.”

“I do assure you, Sir, that I have no pretension whatever of that kind of elegance which consists in tormenting a respectable man. I would rather be paid the compliment of being believed sincere. I thank you again and again for the honour you have done me in your proposals, but to accept them is absolutely impossible. My feelings in every respect forbid it. Can I speak plainer? Do not consider me now as an elegant female intending to plague you, but as a rational creature speaking the truth from her heart.”
