Self-will in the man who does not reckon wisely is by itself the weakest of all things.

For there is no defense for a man who, in the excess of his wealth, has kicked the great altar of Justice out of sight.

For the mighty, even to give away is grace.

Search well and be wise, nor believe that self-willed pride will ever be better than good counsel.

For a murderous blow let murderous blow atone.

God's most lordly gift to man is decency of mind.

Whenever a man makes haste, God too hastens with him.
