Happy the man who has been able to learn the causes of things.
The medicine increases the disease.
If ye despise the human race, and mortal arms, yet remember that there is a God who is mindful of right and wrong.
Come what may, all bad fortune is to be conquered by endurance.
Harsh necessity, and the newness of my kingdom, force me to do such things and to guard my frontiers everywhere.
Do not yield to misfortunes, but advance more boldly to meet them, as your fortune permits you.
