As the sea is beautiful not only in calm but also in storm, so is happiness found not only in peace but also in strife.
For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it.
The small charity that comes from the heart is better than the great charity that comes from the head.
Better to deserve praise without having it, than to have it without deserving it.
The wealthy seldom possess wealth: oftener they are possessed by it.
However bad a man, he will have some friends: however good, he will have some enemies.
