Time stays long enough for anyone who will use it.

Tears come from the heart and not from the brain

You will never have a greater or lesser dominion than that over yourself...the height of a man's success is gauged by his self-mastery; the depth of his failure by his self-abandonment. ...And this law is the expression of eternal justice. He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others.

Never make heads straight on the shoulders, but turn them aside to the right or to the left, even though they look down, or upward, or straight ahead, because it is necessary for them to look lively and awake and not asleep. And do not depict the front or rear half of the whole person so that too much straightness is displaced, one half above or below the other half; and if you should wish to use stiff figures, do so only in portraying old people.

To enjoy - to love a thing for its own sake and for no other reason.

When you put your hand in a flowing stream, you touch the last that has gone before and the first of what is still to come.

A beautiful body perishes, but a work of art dies not.
