Everyone excels in something in which another fails. |
Fashion is more powerful than any tyrant. |
Fortune favors the bold, but abandons the timid. |
Glory is the shadow of virtue |
Hay is more acceptable to an ass than gold |
He alone is wise who can accommodate himself to all contingencies of life; but the fool contends, and struggling, like a swimmer, against the stream. |
He catches the best fish who angles with a golden hook |
He conquers twice who conquers himself in victory |
He conquers who conquers himself |
He conquers who conquers himself |
He dies before he is old who is wise before his day |
He dies twice who perishes by his own hand |
He fishes well who uses a golden hook |
He is unworthy of life who gives no life to another |
He labors vainly, who endeavors to please every person |
