Only the bold get to the top..

If you would live innocently, seek solitude..

It is bad advice that cannot be changed..

Patience is the remedy for every misfortune..

There is more of fear than delight in a secret pleasure..

The most delightful pleasures cloy without variety..

That is a most wretched fortune which is without an enemy..

Speech is a mirror of the soul: as a man speaks, so is he..

A wise man will be master of his mind, a fool will be its slave..

Depend not on fortune, but on conduct..

Admonish your friends privately, but praise them openly..

Man's life is short; and therefore an honorable death is his immortality..

Poverty wants much; but avarice, everything..

He who has lost honor can lose nothing more..

An evil gain equals a loss..

No one ever lost his honor, except he who had it not..

Discord gives a relish for concord..

A rolling stone can gather no moss..

Agreement is made more precious by disagreement..

He who leaves a fault unpunished invites crime..

The person who receives the most favors is the one who knows how to return them..
