What do sad complaints avail if the offense is not cut down by punishment.

Patience lightens the burthen we cannot avert.

Ridicule more often settles things more thoroughly and better than acrimony.

Clogged with yesterday's excess, the body drags the mind down with it.

Now is the time for drinking; now the time to beat the earth with unfettered foot.

We are often deterred from crime by the disgrace of others.

I shall not completely die.
