Life is a campaign, a brief staying in a strange region.

Leave other people's mistakes where they lie.

How ridiculous not to flee from one's own wickedness, which is possible, yet endeavor to flee from another's which is not.

It is the act of a madman to pursue impossibilities .

Failure to read what is happening in another's soul is not easily seen as a cause of unhappiness: but those who fail to attend the motions of their own soul are necessarily unhappy.

All is as thinking makes it so

Tranquility is nothing else than the good ordering of the mind.
