It is courage, courage, courage, that raises the blood of life to crimson splendor. Live bravely and present a brave front to adversity.
Horace
Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which, in prosperous circumstances, would have lain dormant.
Horace
Cease to inquire what the future has in store, and take as a gift whatever the day brings forth.
Horace
Avoid inquisitive persons, for they are sure to be gossips, their ears are open to hear, but they will not keep what is entrusted to them.
Horace
A heart well prepared for adversity in bad times hopes, and in good times fears for a change in fortune.
Horace
