In all things let reason be your guide.
No man is happy; he is at best fortunate.
If all men were to bring their miseries together in one place, most would be glad to take each his own home again rather than take a portion out of the common stock.
Rich people without wisdom and learning are but sheep with golden fleeces.
He that will sell his fame will also sell the public interest.
True blessedness consisteth in a good life and a happy death.
