One ought to have a good memory when he has told a lie
Every brave man is a man of his word; to such base vices he cannot stoop, and shuns more than death the shame of lying.
Ambition displeases when it has been sated ... having reached the peak, it aspires to descend.
He on whom heaven confers a sceptre knows not the weight till he bears it.
Flee an enemy who knows your weakness.
He who despises life is his life's master.
