A good man does not spy around for the black spots in others, but presses unswervingly on towards his mark.

All things of the body stream away like a river, all things of the mind are dreams and delusion; life is warfare, and a visit to a strange land; the only lasting fame is oblivion.

To refrain from imitation is the best revenge.

The true worth of a man is to be measured by the objects he pursues.

Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.

Does what's happened keep you from acting with justice, generosity, self-control, sanity, prudence, honesty, humility, straightforward ness, and all other qualities that allow a person's nature to fulfill itself? So remember this principle when something threatens to cause you pain: the thing itself was no misfortune at all; to endure it and prevail is great good fortune.

Everything is mere opinion.
