Good and bad may not be dissevered; There is, as there should be, a commingling.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

There is one thing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its course; a quiet conscience.

Woman is woman's natural ally.

The man who glories in his luck may be overthrown by destiny.

It is in adversity that the good show their friendship most clearly; prosperity always finds friends.

Too much zeal offends where indirection works.
