Life is a gift of the immortal Gods, but living well is the gift of philosophy What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more. If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable. Laws do not persuade just because they threaten. He who comes to a conclusion when the other side is unheard, may have been just in his conclusion, but yet has not been just in his conduct In every good man a God doth dwell It is well to be born either a king or a fool No man ever became wise by chance The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man... It is more powerful than external circumstances. Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life. |
