We live, not as we wish to, but as we can.
If you want to live your whole life free from pain you must become either a god or else a corpse. Consider other men's troubles and that will comfort you.
To live is not to live for one's self; let us help one another.
He who labors diligently need never despair for all things are accomplished by diligence and labor.
The truth sometimes not sought for comes forth to the light.
Being mortal, never pray for an untroubled life. Rather, ask the God to give you an enduring heart.
