A great mind becomes a great fortune.

It is the sign of a great mind to dislike greatness, and to prefer things in measure to things in excess.

Precepts or maxims are of great weight and a few useful ones on hand do more to produce a happy life than the volumes we can't find.

Great grief does not of itself put an end to itself.

He who has great power should use it lightly.

It makes a great deal of difference whether one wills not to sin or has not the knowledge to sin.

There is none made so great, but he may both need the help and service, and stand in fear of the power and unkindness, even of the meanest of mortals.

The heart is great which shows moderation in the midst of prosperity.

If thou art a man, admire those who attempt great things, even though they fail.

True happiness is... to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.
