Of no mortal say, 'That man is happy,' till vexed by no grievous ill he pass Life's goal.
Even from the first it is meek to seek the impossible.
Death is not the greatest of evils; it is worse to want to die, and not be able to.
Who feels no ills, should, therefore, fear them; and when fortune smiles, be doubly cautious, lest destruction come remorseless on him, and he fall unpitied.
No one who errs unwillingly is evil.
Success, remember is the reward of toil.
