A wise man does not chatter with one whose mind is sick.
And if you think my acts are foolishness the foolishness may be in a fool's eye.
There is no witness so terrible, no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
What is to be taught I learn; what is to be discovered I seek; what is to be prayed for I sought from the gods.
For no one loves the bearer of bad tidings.
Wonders are many, and none is more wonderful than man; the power that crosses the white sea, driven by the stormy wind, making a path under surges that threaten to engulf him.
