The truth is ever best.
Time alone reveals the just man; but you might discern a bad man in a single day.
For even bold natures flee, whenever they see Hades close to life.
Fortune raises up and fortune brings low both the man who fares well and the one who fares badly; and there is no prophet of the future for mortal men.
Time is a kindly God.
What you can't enforce, do not command.
