In the make-up of human beings, intelligence counts for more than our hands, and that is our true strength.
Yield to him who opposes you; by yielding you conquer.
Love is a believing creature.
The vulgar crowd values friends according to their usefulness.
Nations and empires flourish and decay, By turns command, and in their turns obey.
Neither can the wave that has passed by be recalled, nor the hour which has passed return again.
