Nature always springs to the surface and manages to show what she is. It is vain to stop or try to drive her back. She breaks through every obstacle, pushes forward, and at last makes for herself a way.
The greatest fools are oft the most satisfied.
Who is content with nothing possesses all things.
Everything that poverty touches becomes frightful.
The wisest man is generally he who thinks himself the least so.
Nothing but truth is lovely, nothing fair.
