The high-spirited man may indeed die, but he will not stoop to meanness. Fire, though it may be quenched, will not become cool.

Skill makes love unending.

It warms the blood, adds luster to the eyes, and wine and love have ever been allies.

If the art is concealed, it succeeds.

Few love what they may have.

In sweet water there is a pleasure ungrudged by anyone.

To give requires good sense.
