No more good must be attempted than the nation can bear
Rule, after you have first learned to submit to rule.
Honors achieved far exceed those that are created.
Laws are like spiders webs which, if anything small falls into them they ensnare it, but large things break through and escape.
To make an empire durable, the magistrates must obey the laws and the people the magistrates.
In all things that you do, consider the end.
