To wish to be well is a part of becoming well.

The young man must store up, the old man must use.

No evil is without its compensation. The less money, the less trouble; the less favor, the less envy. Even in those cases which put us out of wits, it is not the loss itself, but the estimate of the loss that troubles us.

He sins not, who is not wilfully a sinner.

The man who spends his time choosing one resort after another in a hunt for peace and quiet will in every place he visits find something to prevent him from relaxing.

Life is never incomplete if it is an honorable one. At whatever point you leave life, if you leave it in the right way, it is whole.

It takes the whole of life to learn how to live, and - even more surprising - it takes the whole of life to learn how to die.
