Courage is a scorner of things which inspire fear.
True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing.
When in fear, it is safest to force the attack.
It is not death we fear, but the thought of it.
To keep oneself safe does not mean to bury oneself.
He who looks for advantage out of friendship strips it all of its nobility.
