As the mind of each man is conscious of good or evil, so does he conceive within his breast hope or fear, according to his actions.
One does not yearn for that which is easily acquired.
The man who has experienced shipwreck shudders even at a calm sea.
Happy is he who dares courageously to defend what he loves.
My bark, once struck by the fury of the storm, dreads again to approach the place of danger.
Be patient and tough; someday this pain will be useful to you.
