One day treats us like a hireling nurse, another like a mother.
The further the fall, the greater the hurt.
Yesterday should be the teacher of today.
A homely woman is one of the most comely of apes.
The wounds of conscience always leave a scar.
Even when we get what we wish, it is not ours.
They pass peaceful lives who ignore mine and thine.
There is no gain so certain as that which arises from sparing what you have.
He who conquers his wrath overcomes his greatest enemy.
The end always passes judgement on what has gone before.
For a good cause, wrongdoing is virtuous.
Friendship neither finds nor makes equals.
If you refuse where you have always granted you invite to theft.
Any plan is bad which is incapable of modification.
A suspicious mind always looks on the black side of things.
Do not turn back when you are just at the goal.
They live ill who expect to live always.
The poor lack much, the greedy everything.
He who has lost honor can lose nothing more.
It is his nature, not his standing, that makes the good man.
