Laws are like spiders webs which, if anything small falls into them they ensnare it, but large things break through and escape.
A half truth is the worst of all lies,because it can be defended in partiality.
Say nothing but good of the dead.
Laws are like spider's webs: If some poor weak creature comes up against them, it is caught; but a big one can break through and get away.
What thou seest, speak of with caution.
If things are going well, religion and legislation are beneficial; if not, they are of no avail.
