What thou seest, speak of with caution.

Put more trust in nobility of character than in an oath.

He that will sell his fame will also sell the public interest.

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.

Call no man happy until he is dead.

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

Chide a friend in private and praise him in public.
