Only the educated are free. The greater the difficulty, the more glory in surmounting it. Skilful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests. The world turns aside to let any man pass who knows where he is going. There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will. Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants. Whoever does not regard what he has as most ample wealth, is unhappy, though he be master of the world. You may be always victorious if you will never enter into any contest where the issue does not wholly depend upon yourself. First learn the meaning of what you say, and then speak. |
