Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times.
It is through suffering that learning comes.
High fortune, this in man's eye is god and more than god is this.
What exists outside is a man's concern; let no woman give advice; and do no mischief within doors.
Wrong must not win by technicalities.
Alas for the affairs of men! When they are fortunate you might compare them to a shadow; and if they are unfortunate, a wet sponge with one dash wipes the picture away.
