The sweetest pleasures soonest cloy, And its best flavour temperance gives to joy.
Revenge is sweeter than life itself. So think fools.
We deem those happy who, from the experience of life, have learned to bear its ills, without being overcome by them.
The same dish cooked over and over again wears out the irksome life of the teacher.
A man who has nothing can whistle in a robber's face.
Be a gentleman farmer.
