The virtuous man is never a novice in worldly things.
For life is only life when blessed with health.
The bee is enclosed, and shines preserved in amber, so that it seems enshrined in its own nectar.
There is no glory in otustripping donkeys.
While you cannot resolve what you are, at last you may be nothing.
While you remain at home your hair is at the hairdresser's; you take out your teeth at night and sleep tucked away in a hundred cosmetics boxes - even your face does not sleep with you.
