many postage-stamps

Returning thanks after a dinner of many
courses

Ribbon which has strangled so many
false pretensions

Sad thing to be born a sneaking fellow

Saddle-leather is in some respects even
preferable

Saint may be a sinner that never got
down to "hard pan"

Saturation-point of each mind differs
from that of every other

Saying one thing about it and believing
another

Scientific certainty has no spring in
it

Scientific knowledge

Second story projecting

See if the ripe fruit were better or
worse

Self-assertion, such as free suffrage
introduces

Self-love is a cup without any bottom

Self-made men?

Self-unconsciousness of genius

Sense of SMELL

Sentenced to capital punishment for the
crime of living

"Sentimentality," which is sentiment
overdone

"Settler" in the form of a fact or a
revolver

Several false premises

Shake the same bough again

She who nips off the end of a brittle
courtesy

She always laughs and cries in the
right places

Shut out, not all light, but all the
light they do not want

Shy of asking questions of those who
know enough to destroy

SIN has many tools, but a lie is the
handle which fits them all

Single combats between dead authors and
living housemaids

Singular inability to weigh the value
of testimony

Six persons engaged in every dialogue
between two

Slow to accept marvellous stories and
many forms of superstition

Small potatoes always get to the
bottom.

Smiling at present follies

So long as a woman can talk, there is
nothing she cannot bear

So much woman in it,--muliebrity, as
well as femineity

So much must be pardoned to humanity

Society is a strong solution of books

Society of Mutual Admiration

Sold his sensibilities

Some people that think everything
pitiable is so funny

Some people think that truth and gold
are always to be washed for

Somebody had been calling him an old
man

Something she is ashamed of, or ought
to be

Something better than flowers; it is a
seed-capsule

Somewhere,--somewhere,--love is in
store for them

Stages of life

Struggle with the ever-rising mists of
delusion

Stupidity often saves a man from going
mad

Style is the man

Sudden conviction that I had seen it
somewhere

Takes very little to spoil everything
for writer, talker, lover

Talk about those subjects you have had
long in your mind

Talk, to me, is only spading up the
groun
