Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.

Antiquities are history defaced or some remnants of history which have casually escaped the shipwreck of time.

We poison our lives with fear of burglary and shipwreck and ask anyone the house is never burgled and the ship never goes down.

Seeing that a Pilot steers the ship in which we sail who will never allow us to perish even in the midst of shipwrecks there is no reason why our minds should be overwhelmed with fear and overcome with weariness.

Old age is a shipwreck.
