Not Well-built Walls, But Brave Citizens Are

Not Houses Finely Roofed Or The Stones Of Walls Well Builded, Nay Nor Canals And Dockyards Make The City, But Men Able To Use Their Opportunity.

Fighting Men Are The City's Fortress.

Brave Men Are A City's Strongest Tower Of Defence.

Plant No Tree Sooner Than The Vine.

Tis Said That Wrath Is The Last Thing In A Man To Grow Old.
