In prosperity you may count on many friends; if the sky becomes overcast you will be alone.
The pleasure that is granted to me from a sense of duty ceases to be a pleasure at all.
Sleep, thou repose of all things; sleep, thou gentlest of the deities; thou peace of the mind, from which care flies; who doest soothe the hearts of men wearied with the toils of the day, and refittest them for labor.
Either attempt it not, or succeed.
All things change, nothing perishes.
Anything cracked will shatter at a touch.
