Be cheerful, also, and seek not external help, nor the peace which others give. A man must stand straight, and not be kept straight by others.

All things are in the act of change; thou thyself in ceaseless transformation and partial decay, and the whole universe with thee.

Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.

You don't have to turn this into something. It doesn't have to upset you. Things can't shape our decisions by themselves.

Regain your senses, call yourself back, and once again wake up. Now that you realize that only dreams were troubling you, view this 'reality' as you view your dreams.

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

Without a purpose, nothing should be done.
