He with whom neither slander that gradually soaks into the mind, nor statements that startle like a wound in the flesh, are successful may be called intelligent indeed.

The demands that a great man makes are on himself; those of a petty man are upon others.

He is the truly courageous man who never desponds.

There is nothing more visible than what is secret, and nothing more manifest than what is minute.

Behind every smile there's teeth.

A heart set on love will do no wrong.

The demands that good people make are upon themselves; Those that bad people make are upon others.
