He who throws away a friend is as bad as he who throws away his life.
Nobody likes the bringer of bad news.
It can be no dishonor to learn from others when they speak good sense.
Sleep, thou patron of mankind, Great physician of the mind Who does nor pain nor sorrow know, Sweetest balm of every woe.
When people fall in deep distress, their native sense departs.
The truth is ever best.
