François VI. de La Rochefoucauld Quote

If the lion was advised by the fox, he would be cunning

If I’d listened to my consumers, I’d have given them a faster horse

Liberality consists less in giving a great deal than in gifts well-timed

The poor don't know that their function in life is to exercise our generosity

Many receive advice; few profit from it.

Your successes and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them
