The best prophet is common sense, our native wit.
What anger worse or slower to abate then lovers love when it turns to hate.
The man who knows when not to act is wise. To my mind bravery if forethought.
Those who are held Wise among men and who search the reasons of things, are those who bring the most sorrow on themselves.
Pray the gods do not envy your happiness!
'Twas but my tongue, 'twas not my soul that swore.
