Many complain of their memory, few of their judgment.

If you'd be beloved, make yourself amiable. A true friend is the best possession.

If you know how to spend less than you get, you have the philosopher's stone.

Those who are fear'd, are hated.

Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.

Seek virtue and of that posest, to Providence resign the rest.
