However bad a man, he will have some friends: however good, he will have some enemies.
What we know is to what we do not know, as a grain of sand is to the beach.
Better to deserve praise without having it, than to have it without deserving it.
If you must hate a man for the many things about which you disagree, remember that you should also love him for the many things about which you agree.
If silence is good for the wise, how much better is it for the foolish!
As long as I fear my weakness, I am stronger than when I trust my strength.
