In an evil hour thou bring'st her home. [You are marrying a shrew.]

Whatever hour God has blessed you with, take it with a grateful hand.

Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.

Let us both small and great push forward in this work, in this pursuit, if to our country, if to ourselves we would live dear.

The good refrain from sin from the pure love of virtue.

There is a medium in all things. There are certain limits beyond, or within which, that which is right cannot exist.

Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.
