"Gutta cavat lapidem." (Dripping water carves a stone.)
I hate, and yet must love the thing I hate.
To wish is of little account; to succeed you must earnestly desire; and this desire must shorten thy sleep.
Whether you call my heart affectionate, or you call it womanish: I confess, that to my misfortune, it is soft.
A gift in time of need is most acceptable.
Tempus fugit (time flies).
