Ten soldiers wisely led will beat a hundred without a head.

Those who have not, and live in want, are a menace, Ridden with envy and fooled by demagogues.

Oh, trebly blest the placid lot of those whose hearth foundations are in pure love laid, where husband's breast with tempered ardor glows, and wife, oft mother, is in heart a maid!

Bodies devoid of mind are as statues in the market place.

When the anger of the gods is incurred, wealth or power only bring more devastating punishment.

The God knows when to smile.

Those whose cause is just will never lack good arguments.
