The character of a man is known from his conversations.
We live, not as we wish to, but as we can.
It is not hoary hairs that bring wisdom; some have an old head on young shoulders.
It is as easy to draw back a stone thrown with force from the hand, as to recall a word once spoken.
Of all wild beasts on earth or in sea, the greatest is a woman.
A man that runs away may fight again.
