If You Are Wise, Live As You

To Keep Is More Important Than To Make Friends.

The Envious Die Not Once, But As Oft As The Envied Win Applause.

Little Said Is Soon Amended. There Is Always Time To Add A Word, Never To Withdraw One.

I Strive To Be Brief, And I Become Obscure.

Nature Scarcely Ever Gives Us The Very Best; For That We Must Have Recourse To Art.
