I Have Deserved Neither So Much Honor

To Die For One's Country Is Such A Worthy Fate That All Compete For So Beautiful A Death.

Just As We Never Taste Happiness In Perfection, Our Most Fortunate Successes Are Mixed With Sadness. So Too We Never Taste Sadness Completely, As Things Could Always Be Worse In Some Way And For This We Can Be Grateful.

If You Betray Me, Can I Take A Better Revenge Than To Love The Person You Hate?

The Manner Of Giving Is Worth More Than The Gift.

When A Woman Has The Gift Of Silence She Possesses A Quality Above The Vulgar. It Is A Gift Of Heaven Seldom Bestowed; Without A Little Miracle It Cannot Be Accomplished; And Nature Suffers Violence When Heaven Puts A Woman In The Humor Of Observing Silence.
