From a small seed a mighty trunk may grow.
He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.
There are times when fear is good. It must keep its watchful place at the heart's controls.
It is best for the wise man not to seem wise.
Memory is the mother of all wisdom.
God ever works with those who work with will.
Ask the gods nothing excessive.
