Superficial goals lead to superficial results

Do not underestimate the power of an enemy, no matter how great or small, to rise against you another day.

Everybody has value; even if to serve as a bad example.

For what fortress, what city, in the wide extent of the Roman empire, can hope to exist, secure and impregnable, if it is our pleasure that it should be erased from the earth?

It takes less courage to criticize the decisions of others than to stand by your own.

Never arbitrate. Arbitration allows a third party to determine your destiny. It is a resort of the weak.
