Many evil men are rich, and good men poor, but we shall not exchange with them our excellence for riches.

I grow old, ever learning many things.

What thou seest, speak of with caution.

Poets tell many lies.

Often the wicked prosper, while the righteous starve; yet I would never exchange my state for theirs, my virtue for their gold. For mine endures, while riches change their owner every day.

Learn to obey before you command.

I grow old learning something new every day.
