Be modest in speech, but excel in action. Horace View this quote
Misfortunes, untoward events, lay open, disclose the skill of a general, while success conceals his weakness, his weak points. Horace
Horace
No man is born without faults. Horace
No poems can please for long or live that are written by water drinkers. Horace
Our years Glide silently away. No tears, No loving orisons repair The wrinkled cheek, the whitening hair That drop forgotten to the tomb. Horace
Patience lightens the burthen we cannot avert. Horace
Pleasure bought with pain does harm. Horace
Remember to be calm in adversity. Horace
Riches either serve or govern the possessor. Horace
Surely a Man may speak Truth with a smiling countenance. Horace
That best of blessings, a contented mind. Horace
Roman lyric poet
