The best revenge is not to be like your enemy.

People exist for one another.

We are born for cooperation

When forced, as it seems, by your environment to be utterly disquieted, return with all speed into your self, staying in discord no longer than you must. By constant recurrence to the harmony, you will gain more command over it.

And in the case of superior things like stars, we discover a kind of unity in separation. The higher we rise on the scale of being, the easier it is to discern a connection even among things separated by vast distances.

To live each day as though one's last, never flustered, never apathetic, never attitudinizing - here is the perfection of character.

You have to assemble your life yourself - action by action.
