There are some who praise a man free from disease; to me no man who is poor seems free from disease but to be constantly sick.
It is terrible to speak well and be wrong.
A wise doctor does not mutter incantations over a sore that needs the knife.
How terrible it is to have wisdom when it does not benefit those who have it.
As they say of the blind, Sounds are the things I see.
Fortune never helps the fainthearted.
