“All men know their children mean more than life.”

Enough is abundance to the wise.

Surely again, to heal men’s wounds by music’s spell.

Some wisdom you must learn from one who’s wise.

Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses his past and is dead for the future.

It’s the wise man who stays home when he’s drunk.

We must take care of our minds because we cannot benefit from beauty when our brains are missing.

Let a man accept his destiny, No pity and no tears.

Waste not fresh tears over old griefs.

Authority is never without hate.

Money is far more persuasive than logical arguments.

For in other ways a woman is full of fear, defenseless, dreads the sight of cold steel; but, when once she is wronged in the matter of love, no other soul can hold so many thoughts of blood.

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

The language of truth is simple.

Anger exceeding limits causes fear and excessive kindness eliminates respect.

Come back. Even as a shadow, even as a dream.

It is a good thing to be rich and strong, but it is a better thing to be loved.
