That I make poetry and give pleasure - if I give pleasure - are because of you.
If you know anything better than this candidly impart it; if not, use this with me.
What wonders does not wine! It discloses secrets; ratifies and confirms our hopes; thrusts the coward forth to battle; eases the anxious mind of its burden; instructs in arts. Whom has not a cheerful glass made eloquent! Whom not quite free and easy from pinching poverty!
If things look badly to-day they may look better tomorrow.
With you I should love to live, with you be ready to die.
An undertaking beset with danger.
