Check disease in its approach.
Oh, what a void there is in things.
He who conquers, endures.
He conquers who endures.
The man who wishes to bend me with his tale of woe must shed true tears - not tears that have been got ready overnight.
Our life is our own to-day, to-morrow you will be dust, a shade, and a tale that is told. Live mindful of death; the hour flies.
