The coward regards himself as cautious, the miser as thrifty.
How happy the life unembarrassed by the cares of business!
Other people's things are more pleasing to us, and ours to other people. -Aliena nobis, nostra plus aliis placent
It is better to arouse envy than pity.
Even to smile at the misfortunes of others is to do an injury.
What greater evil could you wish a miser, than long life?
