ackwards

The greatness he had gained he
overlooked

The dressing and undressing of the holy
images

The god Amor is the best schoolmaster

The not over-strong thread of my good
patience

The man within him, and not on the
circumstances without

The scholar's ears are at his back:
when he is flogged

The best enjoyment in creating is had
in anticipation

The experienced love to signify their
superiority

Then hate came; but it did not last
long

There is no 'never,' no surely

There are no gods, and whoever bows
makes himself a slave

There is nothing better than death, for
it is peace

They who will, can

They praise their butchers more than
their benefactors

They keep an account in their heart and
not in their head

They get ahead of us, and yet--I would
not change with them

Thin-skinned, like all up-starts in
authority

Think of his wife, not with affection
only, but with pride

Those are not my real friends who tell
me I am beautiful

Those who will not listen must feel

Those two little words 'wish' and
'ought'

Those whom we fear, says my uncle, we
cannot love

Thou canst say in words what we can
only feel

Though thou lose all thou deemest thy
happiness

Thought that the insane were possessed
by demons

Time is clever in the healing art

Title must not be a bill of fare

To pray is better than to bathe

To govern the world one must have less
need of sleep

To know half is less endurable than to
know nothing

To her it was not a belief but a
certainty

To the child death is only slumber

To expect gratitude is folly

To the mines meant to be doomed to a
slow, torturing death

To whom the emotion of sorrow affords a
mournful pleasure

To whom fortune gives once, it gives by
bushels

To-morrow could give them nothing
better than to-day

To be happy, one must forget what
cannot be altered

Tone of patronizing instruction assumed
by the better informed

Trifling incident gains importance when
undue emphasis is laid

Trouble does not enhance beauty

True host puts an end to the banquet

Trustfulness is so dear, so essential
to me

Two griefs always belong to one joy

Unjust to injure and rob the child for
the benefit of the man

Until neither knew which was the giver
and which the receiver

Unwise to try to make a man happy by
force

Use their physical helplessness as a
defence

Use words instead of swords, traps
instead
