It is a bitter dose to be taught obedience after you have learned to rule.
It a wretched thing to suffer at the hand of one of whom we cannot complain.
He has existed only, not lived, who lacks wisdom in old age.
The brave or the fortunate can afford to laugh at envy.
He knows not when to be silent who knows not when to speak.
At daybreak, when loath to rise, have this thought in thy mind: I am rising for a man's work.
