Fortune helps the brave.
As many opinions as there are men; each a law to himself.
How many things both just and unjust are sanctioned by custom?
While the mind is in doubt, it is driven this way and that by a slight impulse.
We should look at the lives of all as at a mirror, and take from others an example for ourselves.
