Necessity is harsh. Fate has no reprieve.
A wretched child Is he who does not return his parents' care.
Nothing happens to man without the permission of God.
Try first thyself, and after call in God; For to the worker God himself lends aid.
Worse than a true evil is it to bear the burden of faults that are not truly yours.
To the ignorant, even the words of wise seem foolishness.
