Now we suffer the evils of a long peace; luxury more cruel than war broods over us and avenges a conquered world.
We do not commonly find men of superior sense amongst those of the highest fortune.
There's no effrontery like that of a woman caught in the act; her very guilt inspires her with wrath and insolence.
Seldom do people discern eloquence under a threadbare cloak
A hairy body, and arms stiff with bristles, give promise of a manly soul.
Pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body.
