The intensity of the favour of fortune is often balanced by the shortness of its duration, for fortune gets tired of carrying any one very long upon her shoulders.

Say farewell to luck when winning: it is the way of the gamblers of reputation: quite as important as a gallant advance is a well-planned retreat, wherefore lock up your winnings when they are enough, or when great.

"Know how to withdraw.
To be occupied in what does not concern you is worse than doing nothing. It is not enough for a careful man not to interfere with others, he must see that they do not interfere with him. With friends, their help should not be abused or more demanded from them than they will grant. A wise moderation preserves the goodwill and esteem of all and that precious boon of courtesy is not gradually worn away."
