Nobody loves life like an old man.
Not even old age knows how to love death.
Kindness will always attract kindness.
It is a painful thing to look at your own trouble and know that you yourself and no one else has made it.
Oh child, may you be happier than your father, but in all other respects alike. And then you would not be bad.
It becomes one, while exempt from woes, to look to the dangers.
