Men of Athens, I honor and love you; but I shall obey God rather than you, and while I have life and strength I shall never cease from the practice and teaching of philosophy.

By means of beauty all beautiful things become beautiful.

I don't care what people say about me. I do care about my mistakes.

The more I learn, the less I realize I know.

Slanderers do not hurt me because they do not hit me.

Beware the barrenness of a busy life.

The easiest and noblest way is not to be crushing others, but to be improving yourselves.
