Come, let us take a lesson from our forefathers, and enjoy the Christmas holyday.
A word once let out of the cage cannot be whistled back again.
Men more quickly and more gladly recall what they deride than what they approve and esteem.
Blind self-love, vanity, lifting aloft her empty head, and indiscretion, prodigal of secrets more transparent than glass, follow close behind.
Be not caught by the cunning of those who appear in a disguise.
An envious man grows lean at another's fatness.
