Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.

Careful amidst the careless, amongst the sleeping wide-awake, the intelligent man leaves them all behind, like a race-horse does a mere hack.

Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
