Great is the difference betwixt a man's being frightened at, and humbled for his sins.

First get an absolute conquest over thyself, and then thou wilt easily govern thy wife.

Cruelty is a tyrant that's always attended with fear.

One may miss the mark by aiming too high as too low.

Good is not good, where better is expected

Friendships multiply joys and divide griefs.

Great hopes make great men.
