Wish to be what you are, and wish for no other position.
Too late is tomorrow's life; live for today.
Be satisfied, and pleased with what thou art, Act cheerfully and well thou allotted part; Enjoy the present hour, be thankful for the past, And neither fear, nor wish, the approaches of the last.

It is folly to waste labour about trifles.
Man loves malice, but not against one-eyed men nor the unfortunate, but against the fortunate and proud.
