A wretched child Is he who does not return his parents' care.
Since luck's a nine days' wonder, wait their end.
He who can properly summarize many ideas in a brief statement, is a wise man.
You will not achieve happiness if you don't work hard; and it's a shame not to want to work hard.
Do not mistake for wisdom that opinion which may rise from a sick mind.
For no mortal ever attains to blessedness. One may be luckier than another when wealth flows his way, but blessed never.
