Be this thy brazen bulwark, to keep a clear conscience, and never turn pale with guilt.
I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.
I would not exchange my life of ease and quiet for the riches of Arabia.

Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the future.
Joys do not fall to the rich alone; nor has he lived ill of whose birth and death no one took note.
