For this I see, that we, all we that live, Are but vain shadows, unsubstantial dreams.

To me no profitable speech sounds ill.

What you can't enforce, do not command.

All a man's affairs become diseased when he wishes to cure evils by evils.

Be a thrifty steward of thy goods.

Kindness will always attract kindness.

Strike at a great man, and you will not miss.
