Honors achieved far exceed those that are created.
Reprove your friend privately, commend him publicly.
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.
True blessedness consisteth in a good life and a happy death.
No more good must be attempted than the nation can bear
Learn to obey before you command.
