Hold fast then to this sound and wholesome rule of life; indulge the body only as far as is needful for health.
Men love their country, not because it is great, but because it is their own.
We have been born under a monarchy; to obey God is freedom.
Slavery holds few men fast; the greater number hold fast their slavery.
Fire tests gold, suffering tests brave men.
Do not ask for what you will wish you had not got.
