If one knows what is right, he will do it; nobody wants to be evil

And I say let a man be of good cheer about his soul. When the soul has been arrayed in her own proper jewels - temperance and justice, and courage, and nobility and truth - she is ready to go on her journey when the hour comes.

Once made equal to man, woman becomes his superior.

One should never do wrong in return, nor mistreat any man, no matter how one has been mistreated by him.

Laws are not made for the good.

In order that the mind should see light instead of darkness, so the entire soul must be turned away from this changing world, until its eye can learn to contemplate reality and that supreme splendor which we have called the good. Hence there may well be an art whose aim would be to effect this very thing.

Think not those faithful who praise all thy words and actions, but those who kindly reprove thy faults.
