Serving one’s own passions is the greatest slavery.
There is not so much comfort in the having of children as there is sorrow in parting with them.
None knows the weight of another’s burden.
An old goat is never the more reverend for his beard.
Nowadays truth is the greatest news.
Music is nothing else but wild sounds civilized into time and tune.
To weep excessively for the dead is to affront the living.
Help me to money and I’ll help myself to friends.
God makes, and apparel shapes: but it’s money that finishes the man.
Be the business never so painful, you may have it done for money.
