There comes no adventure but wears to our soul the shape of our everyday thoughts.

To have known how to change the past into a few saddened smiles-is this not to master the future?

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

The true sage is not he who sees, but he who, seeing the furthest, has the deepest love for mankind.

If the bee disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live.

At every crossroads on the path that leads to the future, tradition has placed 10,000 men to guard the past.

There is no soul that does not respond to love, for the soul of man is a guest that has gone hungry these centuries back.
