Where crime is taught from early years, it becomes a part of nature.
Very slight violence will break that which has once been cracked.
That pleasure which can be safely indulged in is the least inviting.
Devouring Time and envious Age, all things yield to you; and with lingering death you destroy, step by step, with venomed tooth whatever you attack.
Love is a thing that is full of cares and fears.
Gold will buy the highest honours; and gold will purchase love.
