Take my advice and live for a long, long time. Because the maddest thing a man can do is this life is to let himself die.
I know who I am and who I may be, if I choose.
He who's never loved cannot be good.
There is nothing so subject to the inconstancy of fortune as war.
The phoenix hope, can wing her way through the desert skies, and still defying fortune's spite; revive from ashes and rise.
It is a true saying that a man must eat a peck of salt with his friend before he knows him.
