Many commit the same crimes with a very different result. One bears a cross for his crime; another a crown.

One path alone leads to a life of peace. The path of virtue…..

Revenge is the poor delight of little minds.

When the mischief is done the door is shut.

The less we indulge our pleasures the more we enjoy them.

So rare is the union of beauty with modesty.

Revenge is always the delight of a little weak and petty mind; of which you may straightway draw proof from this, that no one so rejoices in revenge as a woman.

Two things only the people actually desire. Bread and circuses.

Your prayer must be for a sound mind in a sound body.

No one ever reached the worst of a vice at one leap.
