I Prefer Silent Prudence To Loquacious Folly.

For The Laws Are Dumb In The Midst Of Arms.

Thou Knowest How Numerous This Tribe Is, How United And How Powerful In The Assemblies. I Will Plead In A Low Voice So That Only The Judges May Hear, For Instigators Are Not Lacking To Stir Up The Crowd Against Me, And Against All The Best Citizens.

The Money Is In The Treasury; They Do Not Accuse Us Of Theft; They Seek To Stir Up Hatreds.

Men Do Not Realize How Great An Income Thrift Is.

Nature Herself Makes The Wise Man Rich.
