To want simply what is enough nowadays suggests to people primitiveness and squalor.

A hated government does not long survive.

Brother, the Great Spirit has made us all. . . . .

Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment.

As the soil, however rich it may be, cannot be productive without cultivation, so the mind without culture can never produce good fruit

Nothing deters a good man from doing what is honourable.

Do not grudge your brother his rest. He has at last become free, safe and immortal, and ranges joyous through the boundless heavens; he has left this low-lying region and has soared upwards to that place which receives in its happy bosom the souls set free from the chains of matter. Your brother has not lost the light of day, but has obtained a more enduring light. He has not left us, but has gone on before.
