Wealth makes an ugly person beautiful to look on and an incoherent speech eloquent; and wealth alone can enjoy pleasure even in sickness and can conceal its miseries.
When men have killed joy, I do not believe they still live.
Every man can see things far off but is blind to what is near.
God will not punish the man Who makes return for an injury.
The man from whom the joys of life have departed is living no more, but should be counted with the dead.
Much wisdom often goes with fewer words.
