As you know, no one over thirty years of age is afraid of tittle-tattle. I myself find it much less difficult to strangle a man than to fear him.
Great armies are nothing but a collection of weakness.
There are few prisoners more closely guarded than princes.
Life is too short to be able to love as one should.
I was born, have lived, and will die free.
It is quite as ignominious to allow oneself to be deceived as to deceive.
