Happy the man who has been able to learn the causes of things.
What region of the earth is not full of our calamities?
That which an enraged woman can accomplish.
These passions of soul, these conflicts so fierce, will cease, and be repressed by the casting of a little dust.
If ye despise the human race, and mortal arms, yet remember that there is a God who is mindful of right and wrong.
Fortunate is he whose mind has the power to probe the causes of things and trample underfoot all terrors and inexorable fate.
