No man can be a pure specialist without being in the strict sense an idiot.

A man's true character comes out when he's drunk.

The wise man should restrain his senses like the crane and accomplish his purpose with due knowledge of his place, time and ability.

Wisdom cries out in the streets, and no man regards it.

Nothing is so necessary for a young man as the company of intelligent women.

The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.
