A sharp-tempered woman, or, for that matter, a man, Is easier to deal with than the clever type Who holds her tongue.
Learned we may be with another man's learning: we can only be wise with wisdom of our own: [I hate a sage who is not wise for himself]
Silence is true wisdom's best reply.
Waste no tears over the griefs of yesterday.
What greater grief than the loss of one's native land.
That glittering hope is immemorial and beckons many men to their undoing.
