| From the errors of others a wise man corrects his own. How unhappy is he who cannot forgive himself. Many receive advice, only the wise profit from it. Never find your delight in another's misfortune. Practice is the best of all instructors. The happy man is not he who seems thus to others, but who seems thus to himself. The miser is as much in want of what he has as of what he has not. |
