These flattering mirrors reflect imperfectly what is within; the countenance is often a gay deceiver. What defects of mind lie hidden under its beauty! What fair exteriors conceal base souls!

I believe everything to be just when a king ordains it.

Those who easily forgive invite offenses.

A liar is always lavish of oaths.

Patience and time conquer all things.

He who is hated by all can not expect to live long.

Doubt, but still hate!
