Of mortals there is no one who is happy. If wealth flows in upon one, one may be perhaps luckier than one's neighbor, but still not happy.

Bodies devoid of mind are as statues in the market place.

Along with success comes a reputation for wisdom.

We must take care of our minds because we cannot benefit from beauty when our brains are missing.

Do not mistake for wisdom that opinion which may rise from a sick mind.

I envy that man who passes through life safely, to the world and fame unknown.

None can hold fortune still and make it last.
