Look beneath the surface; let not the several quality of a thing nor its worth escape thee.
In the morning when thou risest unwillingly, let this thought be present - I am rising to the work of a human being. Why then am I dissatisfied if I am going to do the things for which I exist and for which I was brought into the world?
Receive wealth or prosperity without arrogance; and be ready to let it go.
People exist for one another.
Men exist for each other. Then either improve them, or put up with them.
In the morning, when you are sluggish about getting up, let this thought be present: 'I am rising to a man's work.'
