There will be vice as long as there are men

Love of fame is the last thing even learned men can bear to be parted from.

In seasons of tumult and discord bad men have the most power; mental and moral excellence require peace and quietness.

Posterity will pay everyone their due.

When a woman has lost her chastity she will shrink from nothing.

Abuse if you slight it, will gradually die away; but if you show yourself irritated, you will be thought to have deserved it.
