Welcome out of the cave, my friend. It's a bit colder out here, but the stars are just beautiful.

He who is gracious to his lover under the impression that he is rich, and is disappointed of his gains because he turns out to be poor, is disgraced all the same: for he has done his best to show that he would give himself up to any one's "uses base" for the sake of money; but this is not honourable.

But at three, four, five, and even six years the childish nature will require sports; now is the time to get rid of self-will in him, punishing him, but not so as to disgrace him.

Because it is correct to make a priority of young people, taking care that they turn out as well as possible.

Better to be unborn than untaught, for ignorance is the root of all misfortune.

Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on Simplicity.

We obtain better knowledge of a person during one hour's play and games than by conversing with him for a whole year
