Grief, like a tree, has tears for its fruit.

A field is the most just possession for men. For what nature requires it carefully bears: barley, oil, wine, figs, honey. Silver-plate and purple will do for the tragedians, not for life.

Temperate anger well becomes the wise.

Not one amongst the doctors, as you'll see For his own friends desires to prescribe.

I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ. For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you.

In this thing one man is superior to another, that he is better able to bear adversity and prosperity.

Does man differ from the other animals? Only in posture. The rest are bent, but he is a wild beast who walks upright.

A just man is not one who does no ill, But he, who with the power, has not the will.

Look around you: there is not a doctor who desires the health of his friends, not a soldier who desires peace for his country.
