» I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship.
» If you want to annoy your neighbors, tell the truth about them.
» I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies.
» I am, indeed, a king, because I know how to rule myself.
