Put more trust in nobility of character than in an oath.
From Solon
Let no man be called happy before his death. Till then, he is not happy, only lucky.
I grow old learning something new every day.
Rich people without wisdom and learning are but sheep with golden fleeces.
Call no man happy before he dies, he is at best but fortunate.
Society is well governed when its people obey the magistrates, and the magistrates obey the law.
Call no man happy until he is dead, but only lucky.
Learn to obey before you command.
In giving advice seek to help, not to please, your friend.
No one can be said to be happy until he is dead.
