One can advise comfortably from a safe port.

During the first period of a man's life the greatest danger is not to take the risk.

A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are built for.

It was completely fruitless to quarrel with the world, whereas the quarrel with oneself was occasionally fruitful and always, she had to admit, interesting.

Life…can only be understood backwards…

Honour him, dear Symparanekromenoi, for his grey hair and his misfortune.
