Anger is a momentary madness so control your passion or it will control you.
As we speak cruel time is fleeing. Seize the day, believing as little as possible in the morrow.
Force without wisdom falls of its own weight.
He who feared that he would not succeed sat still.
He who has begun is half done; dare to know; begin!
In peace, as a wise man, he should make suitable preparation for war.
Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.
To flee vice is the beginning of virtue, and to have got rid of folly is the beginning of wisdom.
