There is no road of flowers leading to glory.

Patience and time do more than strength or passion.

Death never takes the wise man by surprise, he is always ready to go.

Patience and perseverance at lengthAccomplish more than anger or brute strength.

Is not moderation an old refrain Ringing in our ears? from which we all refrain.

You've tried to reform what will not learn. Shut doors on traits that you wish were dead; They will open a window and return.

Better to suffer than to die.
