Base men who prosper are unenviable.

For children preserve the fame of a man after his death.

If you will take me as your teacher, you will not kick against the pricks.

When a tongue fails to send forth appropriate shafts, there might be a word to act as healer of these.

For the mighty, even to give away is grace.

Excessive fear is always powerless.

There is advantage in the wisdom won from pain.
