Whoe'er imagines prudence all his own, Or deems that he hath powers to speak and judge Such as none other hath, when they are known, They are found shallow.
When people fall in deep distress, their native sense departs.
No honest man will argue on every side
Rather throw away that which is dearest to you, your own life, than turn away a good friend.
Troubles hurt the most when they prove self-inflicted.
To be doing good deeds is man's most glorious task.
