Are you not ashamed of your eagerness to possess as much wealth, reputation, and honors as possible, while you do not care for nor give thought to wisdom or truth, or the best possible state of your soul?
Wisdom begins in wonder.
You never know a line is crooked unless you have a straight one to put next to it.
If he who does not know kept silent, discord would cease.
To move the world we must move ourselves.
The shortest and surest way to live with honor in the world, is to be in reality what we would appear to be, all human virtues increase and strengthen themselves by the practice and experience of them.
