Better To Suffer Than To Die.

I Bend And Do Not Break.

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.

Let Us Not Overstrain Our Talents, Lest We Do Nothing Gracefully: A Clown, Whatever He May Do, Will Never Pass For A Gentleman. [fr., Ne Forcons Point Notre Talent; Nous Ne Ferions Rien Avec Grace: Jamais Un Lourdaud, Quoi Qu'il Fasse, Ne Saurit Passer Pour Galant.]

The More Wary You Are Of Danger, The More Likely You Are To Meet It.

Better A Living Beggar Than A Buried Emperor.
