A man is judged by his friends, for the wise and the foolish have never agreed.

Leave your luck while still winning.

Many get the repute of being witty but thereby lose the credit of being sensible. Jest has its little hour, seriousness should have all the rest.

Knowledge and courage take turns at greatness.

Cunning grows in deceit at seeing itself discovered, and tries to deceive with truth itselft.

The wise are always impatient, for he that increases knowledge increases impatience of folly.

The truest wild beasts live in the most populous places.
