To have slaved so many years for nothing!
To gain a livelihood at the expense of all that makes life worth the having.
There is nothing worse than words of kindness that lie.
The sweetest pleasures soonest cloy, And its best flavour temperance gives to joy.
Death alone discloses how insignificant are the puny bodies of men.
Some men make money not for the sake of living, but ache In the blindness of greed and live just for their fortune's sake.
