The language of truth is unvarnished enough.
Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other.
The heart is great which shows moderation in the midst of prosperity.
No one can hold absolute power for long, controlled power endures.
He who blushes at riding in a rattletrap, will boast when he rides in style.
He robs present ills of their power who has perceived their coming beforehand.
