Find joy in simplicity, self-respect, and indifference to what lies between virtue and vice. Love the human race. Follow the divine.

All things fade and quickly turn to myth.

Everything is born from change. ...there is nothing nature loves more that to alter what exists and make new things like it. All that exists is the seed of what will emerge from it. You think the only seeds are the one that make plants and children? Go deeper.

Life is short. Do not forget about the most important things in our life, living for other people and doing good for them.

Be not as one that hath ten thousand years to live; death is nigh at hand: while thou livest, while thou hast time, be good.

Take me and cast me where you will; I shall still be possessor of the divinity within me, serene and content.

...the sole thing of which any man can be deprived is the present; since this is all he owns, and nobody can lose what is not his.
