Even If Misfortune Is Only Good For

Everyone Believes Very Easily Whatever They Fear Or Desire.

Neither Blows From Pitchfork, Nor From The Lash, Can Make Him Change His Ways. [fr., Coups De Fourches Ni D'etriveres, Ne Lui Font Changer De Manieres.]

Help Yourself, And Heaven Will Help You.

The Strongest Passion Is Fear.

To Live Lightheartedly But Not Recklessly; To Be Gay Without Being Boisterous; To Be Courageous Without Being Bold; To Show Trust And Cheerful Resignation Without Fatalism - This Is The Art Of Living.
