"Dare to be wise; begin! He who postpones the hour of living rightly is like the rustic who
waits for the river to run out before he crosses. " Horace

"Atrévete a ser sabio; ¡comienza! Aquellos que posponen la hora de vivir
correctamente actúan como el pueblerino que espera que el río pase para cruzarlo."
