Man appoints, and God disappoints.
It requires a long time to know anyone.
Leap out of the frying pan into the fire.
All kinds of beauty do not inspire love; there is a kind which only pleases the sight, but does not captivate the affections.
Arms are my ornaments, warfare my repose.
Digo, paciencia y barajar. What I say is, patience, and shuffle the cards.
