Limbs of a dismembered poet.
Had the crow only fed without cawing she would have had more to eat, and much less of strife and envy to contend with. [To noise abroad our success is to invite envy and competition.]
What it is forbidden to be put right becomes lighter by acceptance.
A bad reader soon puts to flight both wise men and fools.
It is sweet to let the mind unbend on occasion.
While fools shun one set of faults they run into the opposite one.
