The miser is as much in want of what he has as of what he has not.
When Gold argues the cause, eloquence is impotant.
He who quarrels with a drunken man injures one who is absent.
He wrongly accuses Neptune, who makes shipwreck a second time.
He is the furthest from danger, who is on his guard even when in safety.
To forget the wrongs you receive, is to remedy them.
