Innocence has a friend in heaven.
If yon wish to be like the gods on earth, to be free in the realms of the dead, pluck not the fruit from the garden! In appearance it may glisten to the eye; but the perishable pleasure of possession quickly avenges the curse of curiosity.
Art is the right hand of Nature.
Misery travels free through the whole world!
The man who fears nothing is as powerful as he who is feared by everybody.
Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.
