In seeking wisdom thou art wise; in imagining that thou hast attained it - thou art a fool.

When thou art at Rome, do as they do at Rome.

Young men are apt to think themselves wise enough, as drunken men are apt to think themselves sober enough.

London, thou art the flower of cities all!

Thou must be emptied of that wherewith thou art full, that thou mayest be filled with that whereof thou art empty.

Tell me thy company, and I'll tell thee what thou art.
