Why does no one confess his sins? Because he is yet in them. It is for a man who has awoke from sleep to tell his dreams.
There is no fair wind for one who knows not whither he is bound.
That grief is light which can take counsel.
There is nothing after death, and death itself is nothing.
Choose as a guide one whom you will admire more when you see him act than when you hear him speak.
Concealed anger is to be feared; but hatred openly manifested destroys its chance of revenge.
