Life is a warfare and a stranger's sojourn, and after fame is oblivion.

No one loses any other life than the one he now lives, nor does one live any other life than that which he will lose.

Every man's life lies within the present; for the past is spent and done with, and the future is uncertain.

The main thing we were made for is to work with others.

Your days are numbered. Use them to throw open the windows of your soul to the sun. If you do not, the sun will soon set, and you with it.

The inner master, when confronted with an obstacle, uses it as fuel, like a fire which consumes things that are thrown into it. A small lamp would be snuffed out, but a big fire will engulf what is thrown at it and burn hotter; it consumes the obstacle and uses it to reach a higher level.

The ruling power within, when it is in its natural state, is so related to outer circumstances that it easily changes to accord with what can be done and what is given it to do.
