Zucchero

For some reason, I found these packets of sugar slightly disturbing:

I think they say (from left to right, then top to bottom):

Life: Life is a long lesson in humility.
Women: Women and music should never be dated.
Culture: Culture is to know the best that has been said and thought in the world
The Genius: To do adeptly what others find difficult is talent - to do what is impossible for the talented is genius.
The Idol: Every religion must be tolerated because every man must find heaven by his own road.
The Beast: The beast ... is not as beastly as might be thought.

... but my Italian's quite broken. I think there were a few more in that series, but I only had so many breakfasts to collect them at.

I hadn't seen these tetrahedral packets of sugar before; they're quite a nice design, I think:
