Of all the things which wisdom provides to make us entirely happy, much the greatest is the possession of friendship.

Any man who does not think that what he has is more than ample, is an unhappy man, even if he is the master of the whole world.

To be rich is not the end, but only a change, of worries.

To eat and drink without a friend is to devour like the lion and the wolf.

Remember that the future is neither ours nor wholly not ours, so that we may neither count on it as sure to come nor abandon hope of it as certain not to be.

Most men are in a coma when they are at rest and mad when they act.

The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.
