Men are not afraid of things, but of how they view them.

Any person capable of angering you becomes your master.

Imagine for yourself a character, a model personality, whose example you determine to follow, in private as well as in public.

To make anything a habit, do it; to not make it a habit, do not do it; to unmake a habit, do something else in place of it.

Man is troubled not by events, but by the meaning he gives them.

What matters most is what sort of person you are becoming. Wise individuals care only about whom they are today and who they can be tomorrow.

Your master is he who controls that on which you have set your heart or wish to avoid.
