Talent of hating with goodbreeding and loving with prudence

Talk often, but never long

Talk sillily upon a subject of other people's

Talk of natural affection is talking nonsense

Talking of either your own or other people's domestic affairs

Tell me whom you live with, and I will tell you who you are

Tell stories very seldom

The longest life is too short for knowledge

The present moments are the only ones we are sure of

The best have something bad, and something little

The worst have something good, and sometimes something great

There are many avenues to every man

They thought I informed, because I pleased them

Thin veil of Modesty drawn before Vanity

Think to atone by zeal for their want of merit and importance

Think yourself less well than you are, in order to be quite so

Thinks himself much worse than he is

Thoroughly, not superficially

Those who remarkably affect any one virtue

Those whom you can make like themselves better

Three passions that often put honesty to most severe trials

Timidity and diffidence

To be heard with success, you must be heard with pleasure

To be pleased one must please

To govern mankind, one must not overrate them

To seem to have forgotten what one remembers

To know people's real sentiments, I trust much more to my eyes

To great caution, you can join seeming frankness and openness

Too like, and too exact a picture of human nature

Trifle only with triflers; and be serious only with the serious

Trifles that concern you are not trifles to me

Trifling parts, with their little jargon

Trite jokes and loud laughter reduce him to a buffoon

Truth, but not the whole truth, must be the invariable principle

Truth leaves no room for compliments

Unaffected silence upon that subject is the only true medium

Unguarded frankness

Unintelligible to his readers, and sometimes to himself

Unopened, because one title in twenty has been omitted

Unwilling and forced; it will never please

Use palliatives when you contradict

Useful sometimes to see the things which one ought to avoid

Value of moments, when cast up, is immense

Vanity, interest, and absurdity, always display

Vanity, that source of many of our follies

Warm and young thanks, not old and cold ones

Waterdrinkers can write nothing good

We love to be pleased better than to be informed

We have many of those useful prejudices in this country
