Of the woes Of unhappy poverty, none is more difficult to bear Than that it heaps men with ridicule.
One gets a cross for his crime, the other a crown.
Death alone discloses how insignificant are the puny bodies of men.
There are many things which may not be uttered by men in threadbare coats.
Those who desire to become rich, desire it at once.
An excess of hoarded wealth is the death of many.
