The loss which is unknown is no loss at all..
Death laughs when old women frolic..
Pardon others often, thyself never..
To confess a fault freely is the next thing to being innocent of it..
Nothing pleases which is not freshened by variety..
He dies twice who perishes by his own weapons..
He has existed only, not lived, who lacks wisdom in old age..
Anger would inflict punishment on another; meanwhile, it tortures itself..
Would you be known by everybody? Then you know nobody..
Where there is unity, there is the victory..
Hasty conclusions lead to speedy repentance..
You should not live one way in private, another in public..
When you are in love you are not wise; or, when you are wise you are not in love..
It is a consolation to the wretched to have companions in misery..
It is easy for men to talk one thing and think another..
When Fortune is on our side, popular favor bears her company..
Vices that are familiar we pardon, and only new ones reprehend..
One ungrateful person does an injury to all needy people..
God looks with favor at pure, not full, hands..
There is no pain in the wound received in the moment of victory..
A small loan makes a debt; a great one an enemy..
