When one has lost a friend one's eyes should be neither dry nor streaming. Tears, yes, there should be, but not lamentation.

If you will fear nothing, think that all things are to be feared.

You can only acquire it successfully if you cease to feel any sense of shame.

The arts are the servant; wisdom its master.

Dissembling profiteth nothing; a feigned countenance, and slightly forged externally, deceiveth but very few.

Shame may restrain what law does not prohibit.
