The greatest man is he who chooses right with the most invincible resolution.
No man is free who is a slave to the flesh.
The mind makes the nobleman, and uplifts the lowly to high degree.
While the fates permit, live happily; life speeds on with hurried step, and with winged days the wheel of the headlong year is turned.
Nothing deters a good man from doing what is honourable.
You find in some a sort of graceless modesty, that makes them ashamed to requite an obligation.
