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