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.

We risk all in being too greedy.

A cheerful mind is a vigorous mind.

Rather suffer than die is man's motto.

People who make no noise are dangerous.

Habit, to which all of us are more or less slaves.

The fastidious are unfortunate; nothing satisfies them.
