One Must Live As If It Would

Everything Is Change; And You Cannot Step Twice Into The Same River.

Never Destroy Without Thought Your Enemy's Pretences; They Are Usually Your Best Weapon Against Him.

Often Beauty Grows Dull Or Common When Speech Breaks The Mask.

I Was A King And A King's Heir And Now I Am A Slave.

Each Man In His Life Honors, And Imitates As Well As He Can, That God To Whose Choir He Belonged, While He Is Uncorrupted In His First Incarnation Here; And In The Fashion He Has Thus Learned, He Bears Himself To His Beloved As Well As To The Rest. So, Then, Each Chooses From Among The Beautiful A Love Conforming To His Kind, And Then, As If His Chosen Were His God, He Sets Him Up And Robes Him For Worship.
