Oh, how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living!

My son ask for thyself another Kingdom, for that which I leave is too small for thee

My boy, you must find a kingdom big enough for your ambitions. Macedon is too small for you.

Perish any man who suspects that these men either did or suffered anything unseemly.

There is no wall that is high enough to stop a horse with a cart filled with gold.

Oh, how small a portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living!
