Nobody loves life like an old man.
Who feels no ills, should, therefore, fear them; and when fortune smiles, be doubly cautious, lest destruction come remorseless on him, and he fall unpitied.
To err from the right path is common to mankind.
You win the victory when you yield to friends.
There is no witness so terrible, no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
For the wretched one night is like a thousand; for someone faring well death is just one more night.
