No sensible man ever imputes inconsistency to another for changing his minds.
Do not hold the delusion that your advancement is accomplished by crushing others.
The higher our position the more modestly we should behave.
Just as the soul fills the body, so God fills the world. Just as the soul bears the body, so God endures the world. Just as the soul sees but is not seen, so God sees but is not seen. Just as the soul feeds the body, so God gives food to the world.
There is no life without friendship
Lay down this rule of friendship: neither ask nor consent to do what is wrong. The plea, 'for friendship's sake,' is a discreditable one, and should not be admitted for a moment. We should ask from friends and do for friends only what is good.
