Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already.

It is not the actions of others which trouble us (for those actions are controlled by their governing part), but rather it is our own judgments. Therefore remove those judgments and resolve to let go of your anger, and it will already be gone. How do you let go? By realizing that such actions are not shameful to you.

Both happiness and unhappiness depend on perception

Where life is possible at all, a right life is possible; life in a palace is possible; therefore even in a palace a right life is possible.

That which is really beautiful has no need of anything; not more than law, not more than truth, not more than benevolence or modesty.

Do not be ashamed of help.

Remember that there is a God who desires neither praise nor glory from men created in his image, but rather that they, guided by the understanding given them, should in their actions become like unto him.
