Fate has terrible power. You cannot escape it by wealth or war. No fort will keep it out, no ships outrun it.
Rather fail with honor than succeed by fraud.
Foolishness is indeed the sister of wickedness.
True, as unwisdom is the worst of ills
A mind at peace does not engender wars.
Why should man fear since chance is all in all for him, and he can clearly foreknow nothing? Best to live lightly, as one can, unthinkingly.
