“A doctor is nothing more than consolation for the spirit.”

While fortune lasts you will see your friend’s face.

The world wills itself to be deceived, so let it be deceived.

Outward beauty is not enough; to be attractive a woman must use words, wit, playfulness, sweet-talk, and laughter to transcend the gifts of nature.

The world wants to be deceived.

The mind longs for what it has missed.

Wisdom and beauty form a very rare combination.

A physician is nothing but a consoler of the mind.

He has gone over to the majority.

Heaven is equally distant everywhere.

Nothing is falser than people’s preconceptions and ready-made opinions; nothing is sillier than their sham morality.

Can’t you see that I’m only advising you to beg yourself not to be so dumb

What power has law where only money rules?

Beauty and wisdom are rarely conjoined.

The favor for the favor or One hand washes the other.

He that has a penny in his purse, is worth a penny: Have and you shall be esteemed.

It is fear that first brought gods into the world.
