Judge a tree from its fruit, not from its leaves.
Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. Tragedy isn't getting something or failure to get it; it's losing something you already have. Waste not fresh tears over old griefs.
Both to the rich and poor, wine is the happy antidote for sorrow.
The brave endure their labors, the cowardly are worth the cowards nothing at all.
Bodies devoid of mind are as statues in the market place.
Those who have not, and live in want, are a menace, Ridden with envy and fooled by demagogues.
