A true king is neither husband nor father; he considers his throne and nothing else.
From Pierre Corneille
True, I am young, but for souls nobly born valor doesn't await the passing of years.
Treachery is noble when aimed at tyranny.
How delicious is pleasure after torment!
An example is often a deceptive mirror, and the order of destiny, so troubling to our thoughts, is not always found written in things past.
Every man of courage is a man of his word.
I don't know how to defend myself: surprised innocence cannot imagine being under suspicion.
It takes good memory to keep up a lie.
In recounting our woes, we often soothe them.
The manner of giving is worth more than the gift.
