The test of good manners is to be patient with the bad ones.
My friend is he who will tell me my faults in private.
Misfortune may become fortune through patience.
All men have one entrance into life, and the like going out.
I am better able to retract what I did not say than what I did.
As long as a word remains unspoken, you are its master; once you utter it, you are its slave.
