A man in armour is his armour's slave.
Truth never hurts the teller.
No work begun shall ever pause for death.
Desire joy and thank God for it. Renounce it, if need be, for other's sake. That's joy beyond joy.
What's a man's age? He must hurry more, that's all; Cram in a day, what his youth took a year to hold.
Sappho survives, because we sing her songs; And Eschylus, because we read his plays!
