I recommend...bread, meat, vegetables, and beer.

There is no happiness where there is no wisdom; No wisdom but in submission to the gods. Big words are always punished, And proud men in old age learn to be wise.

Chance never helps those who do not help themselves.

None love the messenger who brings bad news.

Old age and the passage of time teach all things.

Rash indeed is he who reckons on tomorrow, or happily on the days beyond it; for tomorrow is not, until today is past.

I would rather miss the mark acting well than win the day acting basely.
