If one must do a wrong, it's best to do it pursuing power-otherwise, let's have virtue.
If all men saw the fair and wise the same men would not have debaters' double strife.
The man whom heaven helps has friends enough.
Do not consider painful what is good for you.
Silver and gold are not the only coin; virtue too passes current all over the world.
Song brings of itself a cheerfulness that wakes the heart of joy.
