I have found power in the mysteries of thought, exaltation in the changing of the Muses; I have been versed in the reasonings of men; but Fate is stronger than anything I have known.
It is the wise man's part to leave in darkness everything that is ugly.
There is no evil as terrible as a woman.
That glittering hope is immemorial and beckons many men to their undoing.
What we look for does not come to pass; God finds a way for what none foresaw.
Know we how many tomorrows the gods intend for our todays.
