The only devils in the world are those running around in our own hearts - that is where the battle should be fought.

He who gives up action falls. He who gives up the reward rises. But renunciation of fruit in no way means indifference to the result.

Your readiness to suffer will light the torch of freedom which will never be put out.

Whatever one does cheerfully is good for health.

The strength of the soul can defy a whole world in arms against it.
