Where reason fails, time oft has worked a cure.

Laugh at your problems; everybody else does.

The things that are essential are acquired with little bother; it is the luxuries that call for toil and effort.

To lose a friend is the greatest of all evils, but endeavour rather to rejoice that you possessed him than to mourn his loss.

One who's our friend is fond of us; one who's fond of us isn't necessarily our friend.

You talk one way, you live another.

Every man prefers belief to the exercise of judgment.
