Approve not of him who commends all you say

If any man flatters me, I'll flatter him again; tho' he were my best Friend.

Eat to live, not live to eat.

Here comes Glib-tongue: who can out-flatter a Dedication; and lie, like ten Epitaphs.

The same man cannot be both Friend and Flatterer.

Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation
