I am young, it is true; but in noble souls valor does not wait for years.

How much must I overcome before I triumph?

I can be forced to live without happiness, but I will never consent to live without honor.

A monarch must sometimes rule even himself: he who wants everything must risk very little.

Those who easily forgive invite offenses.

I am Roman, alas, because Horace is Roman.

Do your duty and leave the rest to heaven.
