Laws are inoperative in war
The multitude of fools is a protection to the wise.
Who doesn't know that the first law of history is not to dare to say anything false, and the second is not to refrain from saying anything true?
For my own part, I had rather be old only a short time than be old before I really am so.
To freemen, threats are impotent.
Life is short, but art lives forever.
