A man prepared has half fought the battle.

A bad year and a bad month to all the backbiting bitches in the world!.

It is not the responsibility of knights errant to discover whether the afflicted, the enchained and the oppressed whom they encounter on the road are reduced to these circumstances and suffer this distress for their vices, or for their virtues: the knight's sole responsibility is to succour them as people in need, having eyes only for their sufferings, not for their misdeeds.

Seek for good, but expect evil.

As ill-luck would have it.
