To disdain today is to prove that yesterday has been misunderstood.

To be happy is only to have freed one's soul from the unrest of unhappiness.

It is the evil that lies in ourselves that is ever least tolerant of the evil that dwells within others.

Remember that happiness is as contagious as gloom. It should be the first duty of those who are happy to let others know of their gladness.

If you love yourself meanly, childishly, timidly, even so shall you love your neighbor.

The manner in which the hours of freedom are spent determines, no less than labor and war, the moral worth of a nation.

It is death that is the guide of our life, and our life has no goal but death.
