A pessimist and an optimist, so much the worse; so much the better.
To live lightheartedly but not recklessly; to be gay without being boisterous; to be courageous without being bold; to show trust and cheerful resignation without fatalism - this is the art of living.
The more wary you are of danger, the more likely you are to meet it.
I bend and do not break.
Often we find our own destiny on the same roads that we have been avoiding.
Help yourself, and Heaven will help you.
