You need have no dull hours if you are a sincere lover of books.

People around you are quick to read your attitude of thought toward them. Inner thoughts and feelings are communicated in ways other than by the spoken word.

There are many fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is yours is the present.

Make your judgment trustworthy by trusting it

Today a thousand doors of enterprise are open to you, inviting you to useful work.

Periods of wholesome laziness, after days of energetic effort, will wonderfully tone up the mind and body.

Do not let trifles disturb your tranquility of mind. . . . Life is too precious to be sacrificed for the nonessential and transient. . . . Ignore the inconsequential!
