Stubbornness and stupidity are twins.

Money is the worst currency that ever grew among mankind. This sacks cities, this drives men from their homes, this teaches and corrupts the worthiest minds to turn base deeds.

There is no happiness where there is no wisdom.

Whoever grows angry amid troubles applies a drug worse than the disease and is a physician unskilled about misfortunes.

Whoever thinks that he alone has speech, or possesses speech or mind above others, when unfolded such men are seen to be empty.

For this I see, that we, all we that live, Are but vain shadows, unsubstantial dreams.

No man loves life like him that's growing old.
