Away with the world's opinion of you-it's always unsettled and divided.
He who is everywhere is nowhere.
There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage.
The pleasures of the palate deal with us like Egyptian thieves who strangle those whom they embrace.
Light griefs do speak, while sorrow's tongue is bound.
The man who while he gives thinks of what he will get in return, deserves to be deceived.
