| A mob is the scum that rises utmost when the nation boils |
| A narrow mind begets obstinacy; we do not easily believe what we cannot see |
| A thing well said will be wit in all languages. |
| All delays are dangerous in war |
| All heiresses are beautiful |
| All humane things are subject to decay, And, when fate summons, Monarchs must obey. |
| All objects lose by too familiar a view. |
| All, all of a piece throughout; / Thy chase had a beast in view; / Thy wars brought nothing about; / Thy lovers were all untrue. / 'Tis well an old age is out, / And time to begin a new. |

| And love's the noblest frailty of the mind. |
