A good mind possesses a kingdom.
No one should feel pride in anything that is not his own.
A coward calls himself cautious, a miser thrifty.
Success is not greedy, as people think, but insignificant. That is why it satisfies nobody.
Life is the fire that burns and the sun that gives light. Life is the wind and the rain and the thunder in the sky. Life is matter and is earth, what is and what is not, and what beyond is in Eternity.
Most powerful is he who has himself in his own power.
