No weapon is sharper than will.
An ant on the move does more than a dozing ox.
The value comes from what is there, but the use comes from what is not there.
Not praising the deserving prevents envy.
As long as we have hope, we have direction, the energy to move, and the map to move by. We have a hundred alternatives, a thousand paths and an infinity of dreams. Hopeful, we are halfway to where we want to go; hopeless, we are lost forever.
He who knows much about others may be learned, but he who understands himself is more intelligent. He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
