Never look for your work in one place and your progress in another.
It is not death or pain that is to be dreaded, but the fear of pain or death.
When you are offended at any man's fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger.
Progress is not achieved by luck or accident, but by working on yourself daily.
Give me by all means the shorter and nobler life, instead of one that is longer but of less account!
To be getting an education means this: to be learning what is your own, and what is not your own.
