Talleyrand (Prince)
Thunder indignantly against.
Letter T
Thirteen
Avoid being thirteen at table; it brings bad luck. The strong-minded should not fail to crack jokes: "What is the difference? I'll eat enough for two!" Or again, if there are ladies, ask if any is pregnant.
More from Letter T
Taste
"What is simple is always in good taste." Always say this to a woman who apologizes for the inadequacy of her dress.
Teeth
Are spoiled by cider, tobacco, sweets, ices, drinking immediately after hot soup and sleeping with the mouth open. Eyeteeth: it is harmful to pull these out owing to their connection with the eye. "Having teeth pulled is no fun."
Ten (Council of)
Nobody knows what it was but it was tremendous. Its deliberations were carried on by masked men; shudder at the thought.
Testimonial
A safeguard for parents and relatives. Always favorable.
Thicket
Always "dark and impenetrable."
