A man who takes pleasure in speaking continuously fools himself in thinking he is not unpleasant to those around him.

In darkness one may be ashamed of what one does, without the shame of disgrace.

Hide nothing, for time, which sees all and hears all, exposes all.

Now let the weeping cease; Let no one mourn again. These things are in the hands of God.

I recommend...bread, meat, vegetables, and beer.

Evil counsel travels fast.

The stubbornest of wills Are soonest bended, as the hardest iron, O'er-heated in the fire to brittleness,Flies soonest into fragments, shivered through.
