There is no harbor of peace from the changing waves of joy and despair.
Human misery must somewhere have a stop; there is no wind that always blows a storm.
Terrible is the force of the waves of sea, terrible is the rush of the river and the blasts of hot fire, and terrible are a thousand other things; but none is such a terrible evil as woman.
Life is a short affair; We should try to make it smooth, and free from strife.
Account no man happy till he dies.
In every work a reward added makes the pleasure twice as great.
