Do not say a little in many words but a great deal in a few.

Choose rather to be strong of soul than strong of body.

Do not talk a little on many subjects, but much on a few.

In anger we should refrain both from speech and action.

Above all things, reverence yourself.

Rest satisfied with doing well, and leave others to talk of you as they please.

It is better wither to be silent, or to say things of more value than silence. Sooner throw a pearl at hazard than an idle or useless word; and do not say a little in many words, but a great deal in a few.
