Man needs so little... yet he begins wanting so much.
There have always been hard times. There have always been wars and troubles -famine, disease and such-like -and some folks are born with money, some with none. In the end it is up to the man what he becomes, and none of those other things matters. It is character that counts.
He never knew when he was whipped ... So he never was.
Revenge could steal a man's life until there was nothing left but emptiness.
I fear there will be no future for those who do not change.
Nobody got anywhere in this world by simply being content.
