My love for youwas greater than my wisdom.
The good and the wise lead quiet lives.
Nothing has more strength than dire necessity.
This is slavery, not to speak one's thought.
There is just one life for each of us: our own.
Joint undertakings stand a better chance when they benefit both sides.
Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.
Ten soldiers wisely led will beat a hundred without a head.
No one can confidently say that he will still be living tomorrow.
Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.
Among mortals second thoughts are wisest.
Mortal fate is hard. You'd best get used to it.
Do not grieve so much for a husband lost that it wastes away your life.
Cleverness is not wisdom.
Old loves are dropped when new ones come
To die is a debt we must all of us discharge.
Question everything. Learn something. Answer nothing.
Down on your knees, and thank heaven, fasting, for a good man's love.
Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.
It's human; we all put self interest first.
