For a murderous blow let murderous blow atone.
Excessive fear is always powerless.
Everyone’s quick to blame the alien.
Don’t you know this, that words are doctors to a diseased temperment?
Destiny waits alike for the free man as well as for him enslaved by another’s might.
Death is softer by far than tyranny.
Death is easier than a wretched life; and better never to have born than to live and fare badly.
Call no man happy till he is dead.
