Who has more leisure than a worm?
The arts are the servant; wisdom its master.
The man who has learned to triumph over sorrow wears his miseries as though they were sacred fillets upon his brow; and nothing is so entirely admirable as a man bravely wretched.
The heart is great which shows moderation in the midst of prosperity.
Unjust rule does not last forever.
The way to wickedness is always through wickedness.
