Remember that thy heart will shed its pleasures as thine eye its tears, and both leave loathsome furrows.
All things that speak of heaven speak of peace.
The temples perish, but the God still lives.
Life is as serious a thing as death.
We must not pluck death from the Maker's hand.
Sorrow is a stone that crushes a single bearer to the ground, while two are able to carry it with ease.
