Man is born for deeds of kindness.

If you are distressed by something, it is due to your own estimate of it; and you have the power to change it at will.

Confine yourself to the present.

To no man make yourself a boon companion: Your joy will be less but less will be your grief

If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.

The offender needs pity, not wrath; those who must needs be corrected, should be treated with tact and gentleness; and one must be always ready to learn better. 'The best kind of revenge is, not to become like unto them.'

The ruling power within, when it is in its natural state, is so related to outer circumstances that it easily changes to accord with what can be done and what is given it to do.
