There is an ancient saying, famous among men, that thou shouldst not judge fully of a man's life before he dieth, whether it should be called blest or wretched.
Heaven never helps the man who will not help himself
And if you think my acts are foolishness the foolishness may be in a fool's eye.
If my body is enslaved, still my mind is free.
Opportunity has power over all things.
No lie ever reaches old age.
