Though I may not be a king in my future life, so much the better: I shall nevertheless live an active life and, on top of it, earn less ingratitude.

Diplomacy without military might is like music without instruments.
Books make up no small part of human happiness.
Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer.
Pleasure is the most real good in this life.
