An Old Doting Fool, With One Foot

A Prating Barber Asked Archelaus How He Would Be Trimmed. He Answered, "in Silence."

He Who Least Likes Courting Favour, Ought Also Least To Think Of Resenting Neglect; To Feel Wounded At Being Refused A Distinction Can Only Arise From An Overweening Appetite To Have It.

Riches For The Most Part Are Hurtful To Them That Possess Them.

Scilurus On His Death-bed, Being About To Leave Four-score Sons Surviving, Offered A Bundle Of Darts To Each Of Them, And Bade Them Break Them. When All Refused, Drawing Out One By One, He Easily Broke Them, Thus Teaching Them That If They Held Together, They Would Continue Strong; But If They Fell Out And Were Divided, They Would Become Weak.

For The Wise Man, Every Day Is A Festival.
