Men often applaud an imitation and hiss the real thing.
It is easy to be brave from a safe distance.
Never soar aloft on an enemy's pinions.
It is not only fine feathers that make fine birds.
We often despise what is most useful to us.
Example is the best precept.
The injuries we do and those we suffer are seldom weighed in the same scales.
Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties.
Any excuse will serve a tyrant.
In union there is strength.
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
