Alas, I emerge from one disaster to fall into a worse.
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.
To myself alone do I owe my fame.
Every man of courage is a man of his word.
We never taste a perfect joy; our happiest successes are mixed with sadness.
If you betray me, can I take a better revenge than to love the person you hate?
