What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?

A citizen should render to the state all the services he can as soon as the sovereign demands them.

A person who can break wind is not dead.

I have suffered too much in this world not to hope for another.

By doing good we become good.

[When anything happens, we interpret it as good or bad, but...] We do not know what is really good or bad fortune. [Only the future can decide. For example, what appears to be bad today may in fact lead us to a greater good tomorrow and by the very act of thinking and planning in that positive way, we can help make that good future come true.]

I have never believed that man's freedom consisted in doing what he wants, but rather in never doing what he does not want to do.
