They are fools who do not know how much the half exceeds the whole.
For now indeed is the race of iron; and men never cease from labour and sorrow by day and from perishing by night.
Best is the man who thinks for himself.
Giving is good, but taking is bad and brings death.
He is a fool who tries to match his strength with the stronger.
Happy is the man whom the Muses love: sweet speech flows from his mouth.
