Truly there is a tide in the affairs of men; but there is no gulf-stream setting forever in one direction.

A weed is no more than a flower in disguise, Which is seen through at once, if love give a man eyes.

In the scale of the destinies, brawn will never weigh so mach as brain.

That love for one, from which there doth not spring Wide love for all, is but a worthless thing.
