Nothing made by brute force lasts.
It is one thing to mortify curiosity, another to conquer it.
A bottle of good wine, like a good act, shines ever in the retrospect.
Wealth I ask not, hope nor love, Nor a friend to know me; All I seek, the heaven above And the road below me.
Things looked at patiently from one side after another generally end by showing a side that is beautiful.
There's never a man looked me between the eyes and seen a good day a'terward.
