And rarely does luck, in its fluctuations, shape ages with goods.
Men fear the same gods they have invented.
Underneath the mask of recklessness, great fears are hidden.
Crime makes everyone contaminated by it equal.
Flee wars, for it is less of a feeling to suffer their terror than their punishment.
That among flatteries that acclaim happiness, the fortunate one does not inquire if they love him.
Let the wise learn from fortune where favor is obtained, where grievance is inflicted.
Swords have been granted so that none shall be a slave.
