We believe no evil till the evil's done
Every flatterer lives at the expense of him who listens to him.
Death never takes the wise man by surprise, he is always ready to go.
The good, we do it; the evil, that is fortune; man is always right, and destiny always wrong.
Every one turns his dreams into realities as far as he can; man is cold as ice to the truth, hot as fire to falsehood.
Rogues are always found out in some way. Whoever is a wolf will act like a wolf, that is most certain.
