No man is born without faults.

That man scorches with his brightness, who overpowers inferior capacities, yet he shall be revered when dead.

Kings play the fool, and the people suffer for it.

Never inquire into another man's secret; bur conceal that which is intrusted to you, though pressed both be wine and anger to reveal it.

The glory is for those who deserve.
