The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

Everything is ephemeral, both that which remembers and that which is remembered.

A man's true delight is to do the things he was made for.

Put from you the belief that 'I have been wronged', and with it will go the feeling. Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.

Consider how many do not even know your name, and how many will soon forget it, and how those who now praise you will presently blame you.

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

Try to live the life of the good man who is more than content with what is allocated to him.
