“Whom the gods love dies young.”

Nothing has happened to you unless you make much of it.

It is not hoary hairs that bring wisdom; some have an old head on young shoulders.

There is but one genuine love potion – consideration.

By associating with wise people you will become wise yourself.

Never ask the Gods for life set free from grief, but ask for courage that endureth long.

It is not white hair that engenders wisdom.

Chance is a kind of god, for it preserves many things which we do not observe.

All men have one refuge, a good friend, with whom you can weep and know that he does not smile.

A man that runs away may fight again.

The character of a man is known from his conversations.

Why should he who is scared be careful?

The school of hard knocks is an accelerated curriculum.

He who labors diligently need never despair for all things are accomplished by diligence and labor.

How sweet is life, can we but choose with whom to live it: to live for oneself is no life.

Conscience is a God to all mortals.

Let bravery be thy choice, but not bravado.
