... Allow yourself a space of quiet, wherein you can add to your knowledge of the Good and learn to curb your restlessness. Guard also against another kind of error: the folly of those who weary their days in much business, but lack any aim on which their whole effort, nay, their whole thought, is focused.

The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.

Everything that happens, happens as it should.

Soon you will have forgotten the world, and soon the world will have forgotten you.

Live your life as if you are ready to say goodbye to it at any moment, as if the time left for you were some pleasant surprise.

Begin - to begin is half the work, let half still remain; again begin this, and thou wilt have finished.

Do not be ashamed of help.
