Sallust

Neither soldiers nor money can defend a king but only friends won by good deeds…

As the blessings of health and fortune have a beginning, so they must also find…

Harmony makes small things grow, lack of it makes great things decay…

The firmest friendship is based on an identity of likes and dislikes…

The fame that goes with wealth and beauty is fleeting and fragile intellectual superiority is…

It is a law of human nature that in victory even the coward may boast…

A good man would prefer to be defeated than to defeat injustice by evil means…

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship…

All who consult on doubtful matters, should be void of hatred, friendship, anger, and pity…

All those who offer an opinion on any doubtful point should first clear their minds…
