Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life so. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
Go not to the object; let the object come to you.
March to the beat of your own drummer.
If you see a man approaching you with the obvious intent of doing you good, you should run for your life.
The laboring man has not leisure for a true integrity day by day.
You only need sit still long enough in some attractive spot in the woods that all its inhabitants may exhibit themselves to you by turns.
