One should stick to the sort of thing for which one was made; I tried to be an herbalist, Whereas I should keep to the butchers trade.
The more wary you are of danger, the more likely you are to meet it.
Nothing is as dangerous as an ignorant friend; a wise enemy is to be preferred.
A pessimist and an optimist, so much the worse; so much the better.
No favor can win gratitude from a cat.
A cheerful mind is a vigorous mind.
