“armour”

“It is not titles that honor men, but men that honor titles.”

“Un hombre prudente debe discurrir siempre por las vías trazadas por los grandes hombres e imitar a aquellos que han sobresalido extraordinariamente por encima de los demás, con el fin de que, aunque no se alcance su virtud, algo nos quede, sin embargo, de su aroma.”

“Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great.”

“Quod Principi plaevit habet legis vigorem”

“If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared.”

“it is much safer to be feared than loved because ...love is preserved by the link of obligation which, owing to the baseness of men, is broken at every opportunity for their advantage; but fear preserves you by a dread of punishment which never fails.”
