Famous quotes containing the word magazine:

    Experience cannot be transferred. We may give wise advice, but we cannot give wisdom to follow it.

    Vanity—has brought more virtues to an untimely end than any other vice.
    Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Weekly Visitor or Ladies Miscellany, p. 211 (April 1803)

    A faithful lover is a character greatly out of date, and rarely now used but to adorn some romantic novel, or for a flourish on the stage. He passes now for a man of little merit, or one who knows nothing of the world.
