The ape, vilest of beasts, how like to us.
He hath freedom whoso beareth a clean and constant heart within.
Don't ask of your friends what you yourself can do.
They hate whom they fear.
A true friend is distinguished in the crisis of hazard and necessity; when the gallantry of his aid may show the worth of his soul and the loyalty of his heart.
Let no one pay me honor with tears, nor celebrate my funeral rites with weeping.
