Quotations for contents

Dress is an index of your contents. [ Lavater ]

A sealed book, at whose contents we tremble. [ L. E. Landon ]

What, is the jay more precious than the lark,
Because his feathers are more beautiful?
Or is the adder better than the eel,
Because his painted skin contents the eye? [ William Shakespeare ]

The world is all title-page without contents. [ Young ]

The learned is happy nature to explore,
The fool is happy that he knows no more;
The rich is happy in the plenty given.
The poor contents him with the care of Heaven. [ Pope ]

But Heaven hath a hand in these events,
To whose high will we bound our calm contents. [ William Shakespeare ]

Nothing so much contents us as that which confounds us. [ Goldsmith ]

As you treat your body, so your house, your domestics, your enemies, your friends.
Dress is a table of your contents. [ Lavater ]

Nobody contents himself with rough diamonds, or wears them so. When polished and set, then they give a lustre. [ Locke ]

In the library of the world men have hitherto been ranged according to the form, and the binding; the time is coming when they will take rank and order according to their contents and intrinsic merits. [ Chamfort ]

As the index tells us the contents of stories and directs to the particular chapter, even so does the outward habit and superficial order of garments (in man or woman) give us a taste of the spirit, and demonstratively point (as it were a manual note from the margin) all the internal quality of the soul; and there cannot be a more evident, palpable, gross manifestation of poor, degenerate, dunghilly blood and breeding than a rude, unpolished, disordered, and slovenly outside. [ Massinger ]

Two things a master commits to his servant's care - the child and the child's clothes. It will be a poor excuse for the servant to say, at his master's return, Sir, here are all the child's clothes, neat and clean, but the child is lost. Much so of the account that many will give to God of their souls and bodies at the great day. Lord, here is my body; I am very grateful for it; I neglected nothing that belonged to its contents and welfare; but as for my soul, that is lost and cast away forever. I took little care and thought about it. [ John Flavel ]
