Happy is the man who has broken the chains which hurt the mind, and has given up worrying once and for all.
A ruler should be slow to punish and swift to reward.
Dripping water hollows out stone, not through force but through persistence.
Dear to the heart of a girl is her own beauty and charm.
Endure and persist; this pain will turn to good by and by.
Whatever charm thou hast, be charming.
