It was my care to make my life illustrious not by words more than by deeds.
You win the victory when you yield to friends.
It is terrible to speak well and be wrong.
Death is not the greatest of evils; it is worse to want to die, and not be able to.
There is some pleasure even in words, when they bring forgetfulness of present miseries.
No yield to the dead! Never stab the fighter when he's down. Where's the glory, killing the dead twice over?
