Let me posses what I now have, or even less, so that I may enjoy my remaining days, if Heaven grant any to remain.
Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
He has not lived badly whose birth and death has been unnoticed by the world.

Friends fly away when the cask has been drained to the dregs.
Tear thyself from delay.
