The most deadly fruit is borne by the hatred which one grafts on an extinguished friendship

As the stag which the huntsman has hit flies through bush and brake, over stock and stone, thereby exhausting his strength but not expelling the deadly bullet from his body; so does experience show that they who have troubled consciences run from place to place, but carry with them wherever they go their dangerous wounds.

When the heart dares to speak, it needs no preparation.

It is medicine, not poison, I offer you.

Let us be lazy in everything, except in loving and drinking, except in being lazy.

Pleasures, riches, honor and joy are sure to have care, disgrace, adversity and affliction in their train. There is no pleasure without pain, no joy without sorrow. O the folly of expecting lasting felicity in a vale of tears, or a paradise in a ruined world.

The true vagrant is the only king above all comparison.
