Who dares not speak his free thoughts is a slave.

Evil men by their own nature cannot ever prosper.

What anger worse or slower to abate then lovers love when it turns to hate.

Light be the earth upon you, lightly rest.

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

Knowledge is not wisdom: cleverness is not, not without awareness of our death, not without recalling just how brief our flare is. He who overreaches will, in his overreaching, lose what he possesses, betray what he has now. That which is beyond us, which is greater than the human, the unattainably great, is for the mad, or for those who listen to the mad, and then believe them.

When good men die their goodness does not perish, But lives though they are gone. As for the bad, All that was theirs dies and is buried with them.
