Old age appears hideous to us until we have to choose between it and death.
Men at any age truly never grow up. All, no matter what importance they may have attained, are still no more than little boys.
It is easier to die for a cause than to live for it.
The years that a woman subtracts from her age are not lost. They are added to other women's.
It is easier to win love than to keep it.
Calumny is like counterfeit money; many people who would not coin it circulate it without qualms.
