Speech is the mirror of action.
He who has learned how to obey will know how to command.
If through your vices you afflicted are, Lay not the blame of your distress on God; You made your rulers mighty, gave them guards, So now you groan 'neath slavery's heavy rod.
Learn to obey before you command.
Wealth breeds satiety, satiety outrage.
True blessedness consisteth in a good life and a happy death.
