Diphilus

"To man no suffering unexpected comes; We hold our fortune but from day to day."

"How senseless is the sordid love of gain; Blind to all else the mind that's set on profit."

"Were there no lust of gain none would be evil."

"Long time thou'lt toil to gather up the heap Which thou canst scatter in a single day."

"No man's more fortunate than he who's poor, Since for the worse his fortune cannot change."

"Time is of every woe the healer."
