Love is invisible and comes and goes where it wants, without anyone asking about it.

My heart is wax molded as she pleases, but enduring as marble to retain.

I do not believe that the Good Lord plays dice.

Now, blessings light on him that first invented sleep!Ê It covers a man all over, thoughts and all, like a cloak; it is meat for the hungry, drink for the thirsty, heat for the cold, and cold for the hot.Ê It is the current coin that purchases all the pleasures of the world cheap, and the balance that sets the king and the shepherd, the fool and the wise man, even.

All sorrows are bearable, if there is bread.

A good name is better than bags of gold.

There is no jewel in the world so valuable as a chaste and virtuous woman.
