An honest Man will receive neither Money nor Praise that is not his due.
The only time not wasted is wasted time.
Hast thou virtue? acquire also the graces and beauties of virtue.
Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them.
Be in general virtuous, and you will be happy. At least, you will by such conduct, stand the best chance for such consequences.
Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable.
