Beauty is a short-lived tyranny.

Be slow to fall into friendship; but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind.

Be of good cheer about death and know this as a truth - that no evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.

Maybe that's what life is... a wink of the eye and winking stars.

Estas que fueron pompa y alegria despertando al albor de la manana, a la tarde seran lastima vana durmiendo en brazos de la noche fria.

Fair pledges of a fruitful tree, Why do ye fall so fast? Your date is not so past But you may stay yet here awhile To blush and gently smile, And go at last.
