He who fears not death fears not a threat.

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

Generosity is the accompaniment of high birth; pity and gratitude are its attendants.

Happiness is meant to be shared.

Heaven often regulates effects by their causes, and pays the wicked what they have deserved.

Ambition becomes displeasing when it is once satiated; there is a reaction; and as our spirit, till our last sigh, is always aiming toward some object, it falls back on itself, having nothing else on which to rest; and having reached the summit, it longs to descend.

Oh, how sweet it is to pity the fate of an enemy who can no longer threaten us!
