What is left when honor is lost?
~ Publilius Syrus
A wise man will be master of his mind, a fool will be its slave.
Fate is not satisfied with inflicting one calamity.
From the errors of others, a wise man corrects his own.
Where there is unity, there is always victory
The sweetest pleasure arises from difficulties overcome.
Many consult their reputation, but few their conscience.
What we fear comes to pass more speedily than what we hope.
He is much to be dreaded who stands in dread of poverty.
Everything is worth what its purchaser will pay for it.
It's a bad plan that can't be changed.
As men we are all equal in the presence of death.
He who is shipwrecked twice is foolish to blame the sea.
From the errors of others a wise man corrects his own.
Learn to see in another's calamity the ills which you should avoid.
Prosperity makes friends adversity tries them.
The opportunity is often lost by deliberating.
He who lives only for himself is truly dead to others.
He gives twice who gives promptly.
There are some remedies worse than the disease.
Each day should be passed as though it were our last.
A fair exterior is a silent recommendation.
It is more easy to get a favor from fortune than to keep it.
The greatest of empires, is the empire over one's self.
Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth.
Good health and good sense are two of life's greatest blessings.
It is a good thing to learn caution from the misfortunes of others.
Valor grows by daring, fear by holding back.
Audacity augments courage; hesitation, fear.
He whom many fear, has himself many to fear.
How unhappy is he who cannot forgive himself.
A good reputation is more valuable than money.
Fortune is like glass - the brighter the glitter, the more easily broken.
It is better to learn late than never.
If you wish to reach the highest, begin at the lowest.
Each day is the scholar of yesterday.
An angry man is again angry with himself when he returns to reason.
