A lucky chance is constant in nothing but inconstancy.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love ... then make that day count!

It is within our power not to make a judgement about something, and so not disturb our minds; for nothing in itself possesses the power to form our judgements.

Change your attitude to the things that bother you and you will be aware of them.

Remember that all things are only opinion and that it is in your power to think as you please.

When you find an unwillingness to rise early in the morning, endeavor to rouse your faculties, and act up to your kind, and consider that you have to do the business of a man; and that action is both beneficial and the end of your being.

Perfection of character is this: to live each day as if it were your last, without frenzy, without apathy, without pretence.
