Joy and sorrow, beauty and deformity, equally pass away.
The hand of liberality is stronger than the arm of power.
Religion is only in the service of the people; it is not in the rosary and the prayer-carpet.
Better hold the hand for coin, though small, Than lose, for one half a dang, it all.
He, who learns and makes no use of his learning, is a beast of burden, with a load of books.
The rose and thorn, the treasure and dragon, joy and sorrow, all mingle into one.
