The qualities of number appear to lead to the apprehension of truth.
I fast for greater physical and mental efficiency
And we have made of ourselves living cesspools, and driven doctors to invent names for our diseases.
Renouncing the honors at which the world aims, I desire only to know the truth... and to the maximum of power, I exhort all other men to do the same.
The greatest wealth is to live content with little.
All things will be produced in superior quantity and quality, and with greater ease, when each man works at a single occupation, in accordance with his natural gifts, and at the right moment, without meddling with anything else.
