Take heart again; put your dismal fears away. One day, who knows? Even these hardships will be grand things to look back on.

I too must attempt a way by which I can raise myself above the ground, and soar triumphant through the lips of men.

Fortune helps those who dare.

Trust not the horse, O Trojans. Be it what it may, I fear the Greeks when they offer gifts.

Tears are due to human misery.

Rumor grows as it goes.

Believe one who has proved it. Believe an expert.

The great cycle of the ages is renewed. Now Justice returns, returns the Golden Age; a new generation now descends from on high.

Command large fields but cultivate small ones.

Let us follow our destiny, ebb and flow. Whatever may happen, we master fortune by accepting it.
