Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.

In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

It is the chiefest point of happiness that a man is willing to be what he is.

A nail is driven out by another nail. Habit is overcome by habit.

War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it.

Prevention is better than cure.

The most disadvantageous peace is better than the most just war.
