Nothing is so false as human life, nothing so treacherous. God knows no one would have accepted it as a gift, if it had not been given without our knowledge.

It is part of the cure to wish to be cured.

Light cares speak, great ones are speechless. -Curae leves loquuntur ingentes stupent

Nothing is ours except time.

Nobody becomes guilty by fate.

Nature does not turn out her work according to a single pattern; she prides herself upon her power of variation.

Whatever is to make us better and happy God has placed either openly before us or close to us.
