Remember What Simonides Said, That

If You Light Upon An Impertinent Talker, That Sticks To You Like A Bur, To The Disappointment Of Your Important Occasions, Deal Freely With Him, Break Off The Discourse, And Pursue Your Business.

Good Birth Is A Fine Thing, But The Merit Is Our Ancestors.

A Lover's Soul Lives In The Body Of His Mistress.

I Don't Need A Friend Who Changes When I Change And Who Nods When I Nod; My Shadow Does That Much Better.

An Old Doting Fool, With One Foot Already In The Grave.
