Few cross the river of time and are able to reach non-being. Most of them run up and down only on this side of the river. But those who when they know the law follow the path of the law, they shall reach the other shore and go beyond the realm of death.

If matters go badly now, they will not always be so.

Better one thorn pluck'd out than all remain.

It is a sweet and seemly thing to die for one's country.

I shall not altogether die.

Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.

Who knows whether the gods will add tomorrow to the present hour?
