What a man does, that he has. What has he to do with hope or fear? In himself is his might.

The goods of fortune may come and go like summer leaves; let him scatter them on every wind as the momentary signs of his infinite productiveness.

There are no fixtures in nature. The universe is fluid and volatile. Permanence is but a word of degrees.

Don't ever give up on something or someone that you can't go a full day without thinking about.
