Human prosperity never rests but always craves more, till blown up with pride it totters and falls. From the opulent mansions pointed at by all passers-by none warns it away, none cries, 'Let no more riches enter!'.

Success! to thee, as to a God, men bend the knee.

Destiny waits alike for the free man as well as for him enslaved by another's might.

Know yourself and fit yourself to new fashions. For there is a new ruler among the gods.

There is no avoidance in delay.

Justice inclines her scales so that wisdom comes at the price of suffering.

What is there more kindly than the feeling between host and guest?
