Lucky that man whose children make his happiness in life and not his grief, the anguished disappointment of his hopes.
Try first thyself, and after call in God; For to the worker God himself lends aid.
If some appalling disaster befalls, there's Always a way for the rich.
A wretched child Is he who does not return his parents' care.
For no mortal ever attains to blessedness. One may be luckier than another when wealth flows his way, but blessed never.
Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment.
