Persuade me or prove to me that I am mistaken in thought or deed, and I will gladly change - for it is the truth I seek, and the truth never harmed anyone. Harm comes from persisting in error and clinging to ignorance.

One whose chief regard is for his own mind, and for the divinity within him and the service of its goodness, will strike no poses, utter no complaints, and crave neither for solitude nor yet for a crowd. Best of all, his life will be free from continual pursuing and avoiding.

Do every act of your life as if it were your last.

All that is from the gods is full of Providence.

While you live, while it is in your power, be good.

Submit to the fate of your own free will.

Nothing befalls any man which he is not fitted to endure.
