Receive wealth or prosperity without arrogance; and be ready to let it go.

Bear in mind that the measure of a man is the worth of the things he cares about.

Thou art a little soul bearing about a corpse.

There is no man so blessed that some who stand by his deathbed won't hail the occasion with delight.

No one can lose either the past or the future - how could anyone be deprived of what he does not possess? ... It is only the present moment of which either stands to be deprived: and if this is all he has, he cannot lose what he does not have.

Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now, take what's left and live it properly. What doesn't transmit light creates its own darkness.

One universe made up all that is; and one God in it all, and one principle of being, and one law, the reason shared by all thinking creatures, and one truth.
