Twere best, if anything is best in evil times.What's soonest done, is best, when all is ill.

Hide nothing, for time, which sees all and hears all, exposes all.

We have only a little time to please the living,But all eternity to love the dead.

Mark this, my son: all people fall into sin.But sinning, they are not for ever lostHapless and helpless, who can make amendsAnd has not set their face against repentance.Only a fool is governed by self-will.

We must wait until the evening to see how splendid the day had been.

Time is a kindly God.
