The wisest men follow their own direction.
A wise man in his house should find a wife gentle and courteous, or no wife at all.
Silver and gold are not the only coin; virtue too passes current all over the world.
Know we how many tomorrows the gods intend for our todays.
Those who have not, and live in want, are a menace, Ridden with envy and fooled by demagogues.
Out of some little thing, too free a tongue can make an outrageous wrangle.
