Friendship is infinitely better than kindness.

Do not hold the delusion that your advancement is accomplished by crushing others.

While there's life, there's hope.

Here is a man whose life and actions the world has already condemned - yet whose enormous fortune...has already brought him acquittal!

What gift has providence bestowed on man that is so dear to him as his children?

Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts.

That which is not forbidden, is not on that account permitted.
