Samuel Richardson said this quote

You are all too rich to be happy, child. For must not each of you be the constitutions of your family marry to be still richer? People who know in what their main excellence consists are not to be blamed (are they?) for cultivating and improving what they think most valuable? Is true happiness any part of your family-view?—So far from it, that none of your family but yourself could be happy were they not rich. So let them fret on, grumble and grudge, and accumulate; and wondering what ails them that they have not happiness when they have riches, think the cause is want of more; and so go on heaping up till Death, as greedy an accumulator as themselves, gathers them into his garner!

~ Samuel Richardson

How true is the observation that unrequited love turns to deepest hate.

I will be a Friend to you, and you shall take care of my Linen

O how can wicked men seem so steady and untouched with such black hearts, while poor innocents stand like malefactors before them!
