Pay No Heed To Those Who Tell You That They Have Relinquished Place And Power Of Their Own Accord, And From Their Love Of Quiet. For Almost Always They Have Been Brought To This Retirement By Their Insufficiency And Against Their Will.

The Return We Reap From Generous Actions Is Not Always Evident.

Even Though Many People Prove To Be Ungrateful, Do Not Let That Stop You From Benefiting Others-for Not Only Is Beneficence In Itself A Noble And Almost Divine Quality, It May Also Happen That While You Practice It, You Will Encounter Someone So Grateful That He Will Make Up For All The Others' Ingratitude.

There Is Nothing So Fleeting As The Memory Of Benefits Received.

It Is A Great Matter To Be In Authority Over Others; For Authority, If It Be Rightly Used, Will Make You Feared Beyond Your Actual Resources.
