It is difficult to suddenly give up a long love. Difficile est longum subito deponere amorem
Ah, what is more blessed than to put cares away, when the mind lays by its burden, and tired with labor of far travel we have come to our own home and rest on the couch we longed for? This it is which alone is worth all these toils.
Better a sparrow, living or dead, than no birdsong at all.
We see not our own backs.
There is nothing more silly than a silly laugh.
