The daughters of Sparta are never at home! They mingle with the young men in wrestling matches.
There is no bitterness to be compared with that between two people who once loved.
Impudence is the worst of all human diseases.
I care for riches, to make gifts To friends, or lead a sick man back to health With ease and plenty. Else small aid is wealth For daily gladness; once a man be done With hunger, rich and poor are all as one.
Down on your knees, and thank heaven, fasting, for a good man's love.
The man whom heaven helps has friends enough.
