To know the pain of too much tenderness

And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.

When you are sorrowful, look again.

A thief is a man in need. A liar is a man in fear.

If your knowledge teaches you not to rise above human weakness and misery and lead your fellow man on the right path, you are indeed a man of little worth and will remain such till Judgment Day.

Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.
