Life is a marshmallow, easy to chew but hard to swallow.
Who ever is out of patience is out of possession of their soul.
Nothing is to be feared but fear itself. Nothing grievous but to yield to grief.
A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.
Philosophers make imaginary laws for imaginary commonwealths, and their discourses are as the stars, which give little light because they are so high.
Base and crafty cowards are like the arrow that flieth in the dark.
