Pale death with an impartial foot knocks at the hovels of the poor and the palaces of king.
And take back ill-polished stanzas to the anvil.
Not to be lost in idle admiration is the only sure means of making and preserving happiness.
What may not be altered is made lighter by patience.
Enjoy thankfully any happy hour heaven may send you, nor think that your delights will keep till another year.
Get money; by just means. if you can; if not, still get money.
