In the moment of crisis, the wise build bridges and the foolish build dams.
Wealth diminishes with usage; learning increases with use.
Ugliness with a good character is better than beauty.
If there is character, ugliness becomes beauty; if there is none, beauty becomes ugliness.
He who marries a beauty marries trouble.
Greatness and beauty do not belong to the gods alone.
Beauty is not sold and eaten.
