Do Not Bite At The Bait Of Pleasure Till You Know There Is No Hook Beneath It.

My dear,

Take things for granted occasionally.

Sometimes things are too good to be true.

Test the waters, see whether or not that which you desire comes with a price so high that you cannot pay it.

Do not bite at the bait of pleasure ’till you know there is no hook beneath it.

For that’s what it may just be – bait. And we all know how that story ends.

Falsely yours,
Thomas Jefferson
