Horace

Smooth out with wine the worries of a wrinkled brow.

It was a wine jar when the molding began: as the wheel runs round why does it turn out a water pitcher?

A heart well prepared for adversity in bad times hopes, and in good times fears for a change in fortune.

When things are steep, remember to stay level-headed.

Even-handed fate Hath but one law for small and great: _x000D_ That ample urn holds all men's names.

Who knows whether the gods will add tomorrow to the present hour?

Let us seize, friends, our opportunity from the day as it passes.

Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.

When discord dreadful bursts the brazen bars, _x000D_ And shatters iron locks to thunder forth her wars.

I shall not wholly die, and a great part of me will escape the grave.

In Rome you long for the country. In the country you praise to the skies the distant town.

If you would have me weep, you must first of all feel grief yourself.

He who is greedy is always in want.

A person will gain everyone's approval if he mixes the pleasant with the useful.

He who has made it a practice to lie and deceive his father, will be the most daring in deceiving others.

Being, be bold and venture to be wise.

What we learn only through the ears makes less impression upon our minds than what is presented to the trustworthy eye.

Deep in the cavern of the infant's breast; the father's nature lurks, and lives anew.

What's well begun is half done.

Who then is free? The wise man who can govern himself.

He, who has blended the useful with the sweet, has gained every point .
