The only way to truly know a person is to argue with them. For when they argue in full swing, then they reveal their true character.

I had an occasional flash of understanding, but then got selfishly wrapped up again in my own problems and pleasures.

Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.

There's plenty of room for everyone in the world. Enough money, riches, and beauty for all to share. God has made enought for everyone, so let us all begin then by sharing it fairly.

You must work and should not be lazy if you want to be happy.

As long as you can look fearlessly at the sky, you'll know that your pure within and will find happiness once more.
