Go on and increase in valor, O boy! this is the path to immortality.
We pardon familiar vices.
The tempest threatens before it comes; houses creak before they fall.
The spirit in which a thing is given determines that in which the debt is acknowledged; it's the intention, not the face-value of the gift, that's weighed.
Whatever is well said by another, is mine.
There is the need for someone against which our characters can measure themselves. Without a ruler, you won't make the crooked straight.
