May God grant me love for that which has splendor; but in this time of my life let me strive for attainable things.
Learn what you are and be such.
Forge thy tongue on an anvil of truth and what flies up, though it be but a spark, will have light.
A graceful and honorable old age is the childhood of immortality.
O my soul, do not aspire to immortal life, but exhaust the limits of the possible.
War is sweet for those who haven't experienced it.
