Persevere In Virtue And Diligence.

There Is Nothing Worse Than Being Ashamed Of Parsimony Or Poverty.

We Feel Public Misfortunes Just So Far As They Affect Our Private Circumstances, And Nothing Of This Nature Appeals More Directly To Us Than The Loss Of Money.

Men Are Seldom Blessed With Good Fortune And Good Sense At The Same Time.

A Certain Peace Is Better And Safer Than A Victory In Prospect; The Former Is At Your Own Disposal, The Latter Depends Upon The Gods.

He Is Truly A Man Who Will Not Permit Himself To Be Unduly Elated When Fortune's Breeze Is Favorable, Or Cast Down When It Is Adverse.
