I am a Roman citizen.

The science of love is the philosophy of the heart

Men of different tastes have different pursuits.

Nothing is so difficult to believe that oratory cannot make it acceptable, nothing so rough and uncultured as not to gain brilliance and refinement from eloquence.

Action is the language of the body and should harmonize with the spirit within.

In so far as the mind is stronger than the body, so are the ills contracted by the mind more severe than those contracted by the body.

While all other things are uncertain, evanescent, and ephemeral, virtue alone is fixed with deep roots; it can neither be overthrown by any violence or moved from its place.
