Do not worry about not holding high position; worry rather about playing your proper role. Worry not that no one knows of you; seek to be worth knowing.
The tongue must be heavy indeed, because so few people can hold it
The Gods cannot help those who do not seize opportunities.
True knowledge is when one knows the limitations of one's knowledge.
If you would one day renovate yourself, do so from day to day.
One joy dispels a hundred cares.
