What can be more stupid than to be in pain about future things and absent ones which at present are not felt?

The beginning, middle, and end of the birth, growth, and perfection of whatever we behold is from contraries, by contraries, and to contraries; and whatever contrariety is, there is action and reaction, there is motion, diversity, multitude, and order, there are degrees, succession and vicissitude.

Nature is none other than God in all things. Animals and plants are living effects of Nature; Whence all of God is in all things.

All things are in the Universe, and the universe is in all things: we in it, and it in us; in this way everything concurs in a perfect unity.

The soul is not the body and it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.

It is unity that doth enchant me. By her power I am free though thrall, happy in sorrow, rich in poverty, and quick even in death.
