“Often we find our own destiny on the same roads that we have been avoiding.”

What God does, He does well.

We believe no evil till the evil’s done.

But the shortest works are always the best.

Is not moderation an old refrain Ringing in our ears? from which we all refrain.

The reason of the strongest is always the best.

People must help one another; it is nature’s law.

Patience and perseverance at length Accomplish more than anger or brute strength.

Nothing is more dangerous than a friend without discretion; even a prudent enemy is preferable.

Our destiny is frequently met in the very paths we take to avoid it.

Learn that every flatterer Lives at the flattered listeners cost.

Better a living beggar than a buried emperor.

Beware as long as you live, Of judging others according to appearance alone.

All roads lead to Rome, but our antagonists think we should choose different paths.

Rather suffer than die is man’s motto.

No path of flowers leads to glory.

Neither blows from pitchfork, nor from the lash, can make him change his ways.
