Let a man accept his destiny, No pity and no tears.
Let my heart be wise. It is the gods' best gift.
No one is truly free, they are a slave to wealth, fortune, the law, or other people restraining them from acting according to their will.
Oh, what a vileness human beauty is; corroding, corrupting everything it touches.
The man who sticks it out against his fate shows spirit, but the spirit of a fool.
Anger exceeding limits causes fear and excessive kindness eliminates respect.
