Joking aside, let us turn to serious matters. -Amoto quaeramus seria ludo
Horatius (65 - 8 BC)

To flee vice is the beginning of virtue, and the beginning of wisdom is to have got rid of folly.
Wars, the horror of mothers. -Bella detesta matribus
Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.
It is your business, when the wall next door catches fire.
Adversity reveals genius, prosperity conceals it.
Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
Whatever advice you give, be brief.
The covetous man is ever in want.
Pale death knocks with impartial foot at poor men's hovels and king's palaces. -Pallida Mors Pale Death
