Soon you will have forgotten the world, and soon the world will have forgotten you.
Give full attention and devotion to each act.
Your days are numbered. Use them to throw open the windows of your soul to the sun. If you do not, the sun will soon set, and you with it.
Look deeply. Don't miss the inherent quality and value of everything.
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
Why should any of these things that happen externally distract thee? Give thyself leisure to learn some good thing: cease roving to and fro.
