A horse never runs so fast as when he has other horses to catch up and outpace.
A man is sorry to be honest for nothing.
A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death by a frown on the right man's brow.
A prince should be slow to punish, and quick to reward.
Against the bold, daring is unsafe.... (more Ovid quotes)
