If a man suffers ill, let it be without shame; for this is the only profit when we are dead. You will never say a good word about deeds that are evil and disgraceful.
Making it a valid law to learn by suffering.
For sufferers it is sweet to know before-hand clearly the pain that still remains for them.
Few men have the natural strength to honor a friend's success without envy.
Pain lays not its touch upon a corpse.
Success! to thee, as to a God, men bend the knee.
